Overriding CCFLAGS and OTHERLDFLAGS from command line can be very useful
while testing and profiling XS code - i.e. see:
http://search.cpan.org/~pjcj/Devel-Cover-0.55/gcov2perl

These patches add OTHERLDFLAGS to @attrib_help and extend dynamic_lib():

I am concerned about this patch. Code similar to what is in MM_Unix.pm
is in other ExtUtils::MM* files. So, rather than accidentially breaking
ExtUtils::MakeMaker, I'm going to pass this patch off to the rt.cpan.org
queue for ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

I looked in the Active, Resolved and Rejected queues for
ExtUtils-MakeMaker underneath here:
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=ExtUtils-MakeMaker. I
could not locate any ticket with a subject line containing OTHERLDFLAGS.

Was this in fact referred to rt.cpan.org? Does anyone have any better
information?

Thank you very much.

I can find no evidence that the report was, in fact, referred to
rt.cpan.org, so I have just done so:
