Thanks for that tip, this verbose info is indeed very useful. 
Somehow I missed that one :)

I am experimenting with the thing but I guess libtool is out of
the question :(.

And then... this thing is rather tricky, it seems making the
libxyz.sl prefers using 'ld' directly, but making the executable
doesn't. Will have to spend more time getting this bloody
thing 'normalized' to stay away from 'command line hacks' :)
