Re: alsa-lib: alsa.pc's Libs shouldn't contain -lm -ldl -lpthread

First, let me apologize a second time...I thought I had found this thread on 
Alsa-user, but in fact it was posted to alsa-cvslog.  I imagine it was more 
than a bit confusing without the context of the rest of the thread.

The bulk of that message was:
-----------------------------------------
-lm -ldl -lpthread are _not_ needed in Libs (since the alsa interface
doesn't depend on libm, libdl or libpthread interface) and just bring
unneeded dependencies. These should rather be put in Libs.private:

Libs: -L${libdir} -lasound
Libs.private: -lm -ldl -lpthread

See ALSA bug#2212 .
-----------------------------------------
and what follows after that was a difference file for making these changes 
to alsa.pc.in

I'm trying to build the library to run on a uClinux target that apparently 
does not support libdl.  But when I build the alsa library with 
--disable-shared --enable-static it still terminates when it can't find 
libdl.

And as you indicate, when I remove all references to -lm -ldl -pthread in 
the configuration files, the build terminates with undefined references.

Any help with building the alsa to run under uCLinux would be greatly 
appreciated.
