libtool certainly would not want to explicitly add '-lgcc' to a link
line, my question is why libtool goes out of its way to remove '-lgcc'
(by using the -nostdlib option).  The issue of different compilers does
not seem to apply here because we know we are using GCC (otherwise we
couldn't add -nostdlib).
