[patch/rfc] setting version type based on vendor

[Mike Frysinger]

i dont know if there's a policy on this, but we've been treating the shared 
libraries in the Gentoo/FreeBSD port like Linux shared libraries.  we control 
this based upon the vendor field in the toolchain tuple.

changes between linking with shared objects and static libraries

[Henning Nielsen Lund]

Hello

I am working on making it more easy to make shared libraries (Patch #6416)
and using them for AmigaOS4.

Now my big problem comes... when we link our executables using shared
objects, do we need to include -use-dynld -Lsobjs: or -use-dynld
-L/sobjs to the line.

Is it in libtool, autoconf or automake that I need to make changes to make
this work?
