The theory:
It is my belief that an actual link should not be necessary to test
for some characteristic. Libtool runs a whole lot of autoconf tests
at configure time to decide how it is going to link when the results
of those tests are added to the generated libtool script.
Consequently,

The practice:
If you think about what it is you need to know in these terms, you
should be able to figure out what libtool will do by looking at the
results of the LT_INIT configure time tests. If you can't, then try

I can't think of a way to do it cleanly :-( But I have no objections in
principle. How much machinery is there to make the config.status parts
of AC_OUTPUT work?

Agreed. I think that there are a small number of circumstances where
the early-build of libtool was genuinely useful, and I think we should
be able to wrap each of those cases is a shipped macro that leverages
the knowledge already probed for libtool without needing to actually
have a libtool

Oversimplifying, but: In a configure script, you can spell

Maybe we need LT_LINK_IFELSE instead/as well.
What I need is a replacement for the LT_AC_LINK_SHLIB_IFELSE macro in:
