FYI, to follow up to this old message myself, according to the other
message I just sent, I intend to use the following for this:

in Automake:
am__if_make_flag = \
$(if $(strip $(foreach flag,$(filter-out --%,$(MAKEFLAGS)),$(if \
$(findstring =,$(flag)),,$(if \
$(findstring $(1),$(flag)),:)))),$(2),$(3))
LTOPAR = $(call am__if_make_flag,n,,+)
and prefix link recipe commands with $(LTOPAR) (if GNU make is used).
Cheers,
Ralf
