Re: [Evolution] Extremely long link times

[NotZed <notzed ximian com>]

This is libtools fault mostly, but also gnome-config's fault (because
of limitations which pushed the problem into libtool i guess).

There's a patch around for libtool 1.4 which is supposed to address it
a little (try the archives).

Most of the time is spend in a stupid shell script which attempts to detect
link dependencies, which also blows out the link line. ld thankfully doesn't
slow down that much (well at least gnu ld) because of it.
