Random thought.

Would it be appropriate to add such support?

I know that some compilers (my personal experience is with the Borland
product line), support #pragma that, through some magic, causes the linker
to add the appropriate -lxxx.

I assume some sort of special record is put into the object file that the
linker recognizes.  Would probably require a coordinated change between
gcc/binutils/glibc to accomplish.  An awful lot of work for a feature of
dubious value.  :->

Cheers,
