My recommendation is not official, but here is what I think,
personally:

  - The default behavior by the GCC driver is a good default.  
    Distributors should leave it alone.

  - On a system where GCC is the primary compiler, libgcc_s.so 
    should go in /lib, so that it is available to programs
    as soon as possible.

My two cents,
