The only substantial change is for static builds which currently don't have a wrapper.

Yes.

The static build is a more significant concern since static builds are often used for debugging purposes and if we hide the static binary in a subdirectory, it may be more difficult to debug.

Good point, thanks.

We need to make sure that it is both possible to obtain the necessary run-time environment, and to run the debugger on the correct binary. Proposals for the cleanest way to do that are appreciated.

Well, did this cease to work (except for the bug which was fixed in
2.2.2)?
  ./libtool --mode=execute gdb ./prog --args ...


I think that existing "--mode=execute" is enough.
