Am I missing something? Are you using the bootstrap script from gnulib (which I didn't check), or my rewrite from Libtool, Zile, luaposix et el? There is nothing in the code for gnulib-tool that would change the default name of the gnulib library from libgnu.a, short of passing --lib=lib$package to it at invocation time. Similarly there is no code in bootstrap rewrite to override the default setting of --lib, save setting gnulib_name=lib$package in bootstrap.conf. Bootstrap rewrite is extremely configurable, so maybe you are overwriting setting gnulib_name somehow from bootstrap.conf? Quickly testing latest gnulib-tool, it already shows a reminder to set _LDADD or _LDFLAGS appropriately. It seems your environment is not working properly. HTH, -- Gary V.
