Random thought.
Would it be appropriate to add such support?
I know that some compilers (my personal experience is with the Borland
product line), support #pragma that, through some magic, causes the linker
to add the appropriate -lxxx.
I assume some sort of special record is put into the object file that the
linker recognizes. Would probably require a coordinated change between
gcc/binutils/glibc to accomplish. An awful lot of work for a feature of
dubious value. :->
Cheers,
