Re: shared object not being created when building with QNX toolchain

I managed to solve my problem. It was deep in libtools.m4. It turns out
that they run $LD --help to scan it for "supported targets.*elf". My $LD
had some flags baked in which prevented --help from outputting the correct
message. This resulted in archive_cmds not being set, which made shared
object linking impossible.

Thanks anyway.
