I definitely agree that patching the Makefile.am and using
<pkg>_AUTORECONF is the preferred way.

However, I find it weird that we need to add LD = $(CC) -nostdlib in
the Makefile.am. There are plenty of other autotools-based packages
that generate libraries, including private libraries, and they work
just fine. Isn't there a better fix that can hopefully be upstreamed?

Best regards,

Thomas
