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.
