Yup

In fact, the user shouldn't have to know that there's magic going on.
It's supposed to be totally transparent.  In this particular case, it
wasn't, and that's why I considered it a bug in libtool and fixed it
there.

Since yesterday, I've also been thinking that we should probably
also save PATH for the relink.  Otherwise, a change in the PATH could
cause another compiler driver to be used.

Since that's just a matter of adding one more variable to
variables_saved_for_relink, I won't bother to post a revised patch.
Ok to install?
