libtool.m4: fix the NM="/nm/over/here -B/option/with/path" case
My previous nm patch handled all cases but one -- if the user set NM in the environment to a path which contained an option, libtool's nm detection tries to run nm against a copy of nm with the options in it: e.g. if NM was set to "nm --blargle", and nm was found in /usr/bin, the test would try to run "/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm --blargle". This is unlikely to be desirable: in this case we should run "/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm". Furthermore, as part of this nm has to detect when the passed-in $NM contains a path, and in that case avoid doing a path search itself. This too was thrown off if an option contained something that looked like a path, e.g. NM="nm -B../prev-gcc"; libtool then tries to run "nm -B../prev-gcc nm" which rarely works well (and indeed it looks to see whether that nm exists, finds it doesn't, and wrongly concludes that nm -p or whatever does not work). Fix all of these by clipping all options (defined as everything including and after the first " -") before deciding whether nm contains a path (but not using the clipped value for anything else), and then removing all options from the path-modified nm before looking to see whether that nm existed. NM=my-nm now does a path search and runs e.g. /usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm NM=/usr/bin/my-nm now avoids a path search and runs e.g. /usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm NM="my-nm -p../wombat" now does a path search and runs e.g. /usr/bin/my-nm -p../wombat -B /usr/bin/my-nm NM="../prev-binutils/new-nm -B../prev-gcc" now avoids a path search: ../prev-binutils/my-nm -B../prev-gcc -B ../prev-binutils/my-nm This seems to be all combinations, including those used by GCC bootstrap (which, before this commit, fails to bootstrap when configured --with-build-config=bootstrap-lto, because the lto plugin is now using --export-symbols-regex, which requires libtool to find a working nm, while also using -B../prev-gcc to point at the lto plugin associated with the GCC just built.) Regenerate all affected configure scripts. * libtool.m4 (LT_PATH_NM): Handle user-specified NM with options, including options containing paths.
