Subject: [PATCH] Add -fno-plt to the compiler flags, if supported. (#71)
Do not use the PLT for external function calls in position-independent
code. Instead, load the callee address at call sites from the GOT and
branch to it. This leads to more efficient code by eliminating PLT
stubs and exposing GOT loads to optimizations.
Since we are already using -Wl,-z,now to disable lazy binding, the only
downside (on x86-64) is that call instructions targeting C library
functions are now six bytes each, instead of five bytes.
Closes: #71

+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+# AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([FLAG1 FLAG2 ...], [FLAGS-VARIABLE], [EXTRA-FLAGS], [INPUT])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+# For every FLAG1, FLAG2 it is checked whether the compiler works with the
+# flag. If it does, the flag is added FLAGS-VARIABLE
+#
+# If FLAGS-VARIABLE is not specified, the current language's flags (e.g.
+# CFLAGS) is used. During the check the flag is always added to the
+# current language's flags.
+#
+# If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
+# flags (e.g. CFLAGS) when the check is done. The check is thus made with
+# the flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG". This can for example be used to
+# force the compiler to issue an error when a bad flag is given.
+#
+# INPUT gives an alternative input source to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
+#
+# NOTE: This macro depends on the AX_APPEND_FLAG and
+# AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG. Please keep this macro in sync with
+# AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS.
