Based on past experience, it is probably "the compiler complains and
refuses to run" (or optionally "the compiler silently ignores your
LDFLAGS" depending on how irritating it wants to be). But it would not
hurt to be specific.

Either way, the patch looks good; the whole point of LDFLAGS versus LIBS
is to make this distinction in command-line positioning.
