This won't do The Right Thing (TM) in general. On many platforms,
libtool bypasses the compiler at link time, so you lose. The right
solution is to use the multi-language libtool, that records which
compiler(s) you're using (including -B and -m switches, if present in
CC when libtool is configured), and uses them or the corresponding
options at link time.
Meanwhile, the closer you can get to being right is to ``quote'' any
compiler flags with libtool's `-Xcompiler' (or `-Wc,') flag.
