I don't disagree.

Yes.  What I am asking is "do these variables actually get set for
'everything else'" or not?  Presumably all it should take you to verify
that would be to inspect the output of this, in the top build directory
of Libtool:

  for tag in F77 FC GCJ; do
    ./libtool --tag=$tag --config | grep '^export_dynamic_flag_spec='
  done

In or in macros called from the _LT_LANG_*_CONFIG macros.
