 gcc4 currently adds -no-undefined unconditionally when linking, which I
 know is expected behavior (mmlr mentioned it in his blog post announcing
 the native gcc4).

 This is going to cause build issues with a number of projects though,
 which assume the usual behavior of allowing undefined symbols in shared
 libraries (e.g. try building libevent), and unfortunately I don't believe
 we can convince everybody else to stop using this "feature".

 Updating the specs to only enable -no-undefined when linking apps fixes it
 (same way gcc2 does it).
