HP-UX 10.20 uses ld rather than cc to create shared libraries. Because
of this, inherited_linker_flags in a *.la file is not added to the
link line.
>From ltmain.sh:
if test "$linkmode,$pass" = "prog,link"; then
compile_deplibs="$new_inherited_linker_flags $compile_deplibs"
finalize_deplibs="$new_inherited_linker_flags $finalize_deplibs"
else
compiler_flags="$compiler_flags $inherited_linker_flags"
fi
$inherited_linker_flags is added to $compiler_flags but
$compiler_flags is used only when cc is used to create a shared
library. From libtool.m4:
hpux10*)
if test "$GCC" = yes -a "$with_gnu_ld" = no; then
_LT_TAGVAR(archive_cmds, $1)='$CC -shared -fPIC ${wl}+h ${wl}$soname
${wl}+b ${wl}$install_libdir -o $lib $libobjs $deplibs $compiler_flags'
else
_LT_TAGVAR(archive_cmds, $1)='$LD -b +h $soname +b $install_libdir -o
$lib $libobjs $deplibs $linker_flags'
fi
So, should we modify the code in ltmain.sh to add
$inherited_linker_flags to $linker_flags:
if test "$linkmode,$pass" = "prog,link"; then
compile_deplibs="$new_inherited_linker_flags $compile_deplibs"
finalize_deplibs="$new_inherited_linker_flags $finalize_deplibs"
else
compiler_flags="$compiler_flags $inherited_linker_flags"
linker_flags="$linker_flags $inherited_linker_flags"
fi
Looking at what is added to $new_inherited_linker_flags in ltmain.sh,
this looks safe.
