Fixed silently since it does not install any shared libraries, so there's not much to be gained by different LDFLAGS.

Just so you know, LDFLAGS doesn't matter _just_ for shared libraries.

Oh, sorry, this misunderstanding is definitely my fault. I meant there's not much to be gained because there can't be any PIC related issues and the executables installed link to next to nothing. And yes, I read your blog from time to time and think I have understood that user-supplied flags should be respected whenever possible.
