Hi all, Seems like I've got this stuck in the drafts queue. While the patch has been merged, I'm hitting "Send" for posterity.

Autotools does not support positional arguments (like (start|end)-group) as some of those are not portable. As in some of the platforms it "supports" do not have an equivalents. libtool creates a "whole-archive" libraries (the .la ones), which effectively does the same thing. The as-needed option is the one which [immediately] discards any static or shared objects if they're not used by an object preceding it. Although these days distributions flip the gcc/binutils configure which that does effectively the same thing. IIRC Debian was the last one an year or so ago.
