The attempt to fix the propagation of the LDFLAGS in this CVS commit:

http://viewcvs.globus.org/viewcvs.cgi/gsi/proxy/proxy_utils/source/programs/Makefile.am?r1=1.7&r2=1.8

does not work with older versions of autotools, resulting in compilation
errors:

running aclocal  -I /usr/share/globus/aclocal
running libtoolize --copy --force
running automake --copy -add-missing --foreign
configure.in: installing `./mkinstalldirs'
/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/compile.am: LDFLAGS was set with `+=' and is now set
with `='
/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/compile.am: LDFLAGS was set with `+=' and is now set
with `='
ERROR: bootstrap failed!

The portable way that works with all versions of autotools and that is used
everywhere else in the globus toolkit is to use the pgmname_LDFLAGS variables
for this:
