The used_p thing might be problematic, I'd expect that several packages
use libm functions somewhere in dead code or when it is folded into
a constant and don't link with -lm, if those dead or optimized away
uses would be counted as uses nevertheless, then if optimizers create new
libm references because of those, I'd be afraid such programs wouldn't link
anymore.
