+# Add --disable-auto-import to the LDFLAGS if the linker supports it.
+# GNU ld has an --enable-auto-import option, and it is the default on Cygwin
+# since July 2005. But it has three fatal drawbacks:
+#   - It produces executables and shared libraries with relocations in the
+#     .text segment, defeating the principles of virtual memory.
+#   - For some constructs such as
+#         extern int var;
+#         int * const b = &var;
+#     it creates an executable that will give an error at runtime, rather
+#     than either a compile-time or link-time error or a working executable.
+#     (This is with both gcc and g++.) Whereas this code, not relying on
+#     auto-import:
+#         extern __declspec (dllimport) int var;
+#         int * const b = &var;
+#     gives a compile-time error with gcc and works with g++.
+#   - It doesn't work in some cases (references to a member field of an
+#     exported struct variable, or to a particular element of an exported
+#     array variable), requiring code modifications.  One platform
+#     dictates code modifications on all platforms.
