Thanks for the example!  Why is AC_COMPILE_IFELSE enough?  Don't you
have to invoke the linker itself to see if it accepts the option passed
through?  And is the "-Wl," part applicable to most/all compilers?

BTW my other generic linker option is --enable-new-dtags.  I'd be
interested to hear opinions about its usage as well.  I found no other
way to run build-time test for a shared library dlopening modules.
(I know libtool can provide better portability than dlopen.)
