OK to apply this to HEAD, to document some more of the libtool
script variables?

Cheers,
Ralf

        * doc/libtool.texi (Tags): Mention `FC'.
        (libtool script contents) <CC>: Specify more precisely as the
        compiler of the current tag.
        <LTCC, LTCFLAGS, build, build_alias, build_os, host_alias,
        host_os, macro_version, macro_revision, max_cmd_len>:
        Document these variables.
