Ian,

LDFLAGS_libxenctrl is defined in tools/Rules.mk and used in several
Makefiles. Are you suggesting to rename these variables and update all
users?


Also, its not clear to me why the place of LDFLAGS matters. In another
thread it was stated that -static may behave different. Whats the reason
for that?

Olaf
