If you had to compare the following two command lines, which one would you say 
disabled the fixup?

./configure --disable-libtool-linkdep-fixup=yes
./configure --disable-libtool-linkdep-fixup=no

The first line is the current default, and it leaves the fixup enabled 
(right?).  That's why I suspect enable-libtool-linkdep-fixup would be a more 
meaningful name.
