According to Jan Engelhardt on 7/24/2009 3:25 AM:
Hi,
when one has a program that does something like
if(strcmp(argv[0], "gunzip") == 0)
uncompress();
else
compress();
GNU Coding Standards frown on this practice:

The "Multipurpose binaries" are born before "GNU Coding Standards". So I
think that libtool has to support them for historical reasons.
