I now copied this method (by modifying f/g77spec.c) for GPC, but
I still think that a somewhat simpler method would be desirable.

IMHO it would be acceptable if one had to specify libraries
explicitly when linking `.o' files, while libraries are added
automatically when the source languages are known. Of course,
a more elaborate solution (as suggested in this thread) would
be much nicer ...
