Allan (and others)- I added a carbon copy version of makepkg.conf to
SVN. Do we want to establish (1) Arch LDFLAGS or (2) Arch integrity
check policy?

Here go my recommendations:

1) Arch LDFLAGS:  -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed
There are very few problems with --as-needed these days and several other distros are using it to. You can always do an somthing like export LDFLAGS="" if it fails (much like is done when our CFLAGS cause issues. The -Wl,--hash-style=gnu will cause us not to have sysv hashes in our packages (we currently patch gcc to have both so building without makepkg will be unaffected). 2) Arch integrity check policy. This is the default checksum produced with "makepkg -g". Stick with md5sum or go to sha256? I don't care but md5sum has collisions so maybe sha256 is the way to go.
