In the documentation about AOT compiling ([1]) it says that there is
currently no support for specifying libraries to link against.

And, indeed, if I add, say, "-lname" via add_command_line_option to the
driver command line, I get an error message

libgccjit.so: error: command-line option '-lname' is valid for the driver
but not for

Is there a principal reason why specifying such flags is not possible?
Could it be easily added or are there workarounds?

Thanks,

Marc
