What do you use LINKFORSHARED for?

As a minor rant: the wholesale export of all settings in the main 
Makefile through distutils sucks big time. I have no idea whether or not 
LINKFORSHARED is meant to be a public API, and if it is what it should 
be used for.

The value of LINKFORSHARED is correct for building the framework, making 
sure that the value is useful outside of the build of Python itself 
would almost certainly require hacks, either in the makefile or by 
patching the Makefile during installation.

BTW. I have no idea what's the point of msg75511, it doesn't seem to be 
related to the original report.
