Here in NetBSD land we aren't that happy using file(1) for deplibs_check_method... The reason that pass_all can't be used is that on some platforms linking in a library of the form libfoo.a can cause problems. So Todd suggested we use echo with file_magic and patterns that ld(1) uses to match sha

For some reason libtool doesn't add in the right goop so that --tag=CC can be specified and the "default" configuration used. It does work, however, as a warning is issued and the fallback is the default configuration. If no tag is specified with an unknown C compiler then libtool will exit with a
