This is slightly modified from the version here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2009-07/msg00015.html
because I've removed some verbiage describing path-translation logic. As
the 'cwrapper cross compile support' patch hasn't yet been committed,
the wrapper doesn't yet DO path-translation, so that's a bit premature.
I've saved that documentation, and will combine it with the
cross-compile patch when we get to that point.

This is currently being tested in conjunction with two other patches;
will report results in a consolidated separate message.
