Does AIX support binutils and LTO? This all only works with GNU binutils 
and LTO support anyways.

Anyways my trend is to go to shelve the patch (or rather keep
the wrappers as a separate package) because the reception has been too 
negative.  I guess it won't be too difficult to download it separately
for people who need it.
