But the linker searches this location by default:
$ grep SEARCH_DIR /usr/lib/ldscripts/i386pe.x
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/i686-pc-cygwin/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/usr/local/lib");
SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("/usr/lib/w32api");
Shouldn't libtool be able to divine this information automatically?
Likewise, having to specify -L/usr/lib/w32api anywhere in any *FLAGS
seems wrong since it's a system location, just like you'd never expect
to have to add -L/usr/lib to *FLAGS.
