Hi,

It seems that whenever a wrapper executable is built for cygwin/mingw,
libraries passed to libtool are ignored.

In my libtool there's a command:

# The wrapper executable is built using the $host compiler,
# because it contains $host paths and files. If cross-
# compiling, it, like the target executable, must be
# executed on the $host or under an emulation environment.
$opt_dry_run || {
  $LTCC $LTCFLAGS -o $cwrapper $cwrappersource
$STRIP $cwrapper
}

and clearly there's something missing after cwrappersource. In my project,
I'm currently just using sed to patch the libtool, but a variable like
LTLIBS would be useful.

Hi!

I don't understand why you would need any extra libraries to build the
cwrapper? It is not supposed to need any user-provided libraries, it's
a very simple C program that sets up the environment for the real
program and the execs that, no fancy libs needed for that. What is it
that you think should be added with $LTLIBS?

I wonder what the underlying problem is that you are apparently trying
to work around?

Cheers,
Peter
