Subject: [PATCH] Use --push-state --as-needed and --pop-state instead of --as-needed and --no-as-needed for libgcc

As discussed, using --as-needed and --no-as-needed is dangerous, because
it results in --no-as-needed even for libraries after -lgcc_s, even when the
default is --as-needed or --as-needed has been specified earlier on the
command line.

If the linker supports --push-state/--pop-state, we should IMHO use it.

2018-04-11  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* configure.ac (LD_AS_NEEDED_OPTION, LD_NO_AS_NEEDED_OPTION): Use
	--push-state --as-needed and --pop-state instead of --as-needed and
	--no-as-needed if ld supports it.
	* configure: Regenerated.
