I see. libc doesn't even appear in configure.in or the Makefiles any
more, libtool takes care of it. -lm is a bit harder to remove, since
several libraries depend on it.
Since LIBS is added to *all* libraries, you'd probably want to add a
new library list flag, and link on Kaffe with it, by appending it to
Kaffe_LDADD, say, MAIN_LIBS. It would be empty for all other OSs, and
only defined within oskit/config.frag. Would that be enough for you?

With Edouard's recent patches posted to the libtool mailing list, we
should probably be able to get Kaffe running on FreeBSD with all
static libraries, until I find out what's wrong with the shared ones.
How portable is this script supposed to be? I mean, if libtool is
fooled into believing it's compiling for the host, but it's actually
cross-compiling to a different architecture, we might get in (more)
trouble

Soon :-)
