Yes, agreed.

Thank you.  If you could post the outcome here, that would be nice.

Since we need to check for the -lc part further down (where we've worked
our way through all the deplibs), I've added the cases down there as
well.  While doing so, I noted that just copy-n-pasting is pretty much
nonsense: $arg has no meaning when we're not in the argument parsing
loop any more.  Guess I messed that up last time as well.  :-/

In any case, these are the patches I've added to CVS HEAD and
branch-1-5.  Please test that everything works as expected.

Thanks,
Ralf

        * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link) [*-*-sco3.2v5*]:
        Don't pass through -lc, nor add it to deplibs.
        [*-*-sysv5*]: Ditto.
        [*-*-openbsd*, *-*-freebsd*, *-*-dragonfly*]: Remove bogus
        `$arg'.
