Doesn't do what you think (it tries to execute the output of grep -
which is thankfully empty on both success and failure).  Also wastes a
fork on grep, compared to the simpler:

case `$LD --help 2>&1` in
  *--no-copy-dt-needed-entries*) NO_INDIRECT_LDFLAGS=... ;;
esac

Why aren't you building this directly into $(AM_LDFLAGS) once, rather
than having to copy it into each and every library recipe?

Why only src/ and tests/? What about tools/ and daemon/?
