"make sharedlib" fails in OSX (ld: unknown option: --soname)

[Iñaki Baz Castillo]

Hi, running "./configure && make sharedlib" fails under OSX:

------------------------------------
gcc -shared -Wl,--soname,libudns.so.0 -o libudns.so.0 udns_dn.lo
udns_dntosp.lo udns_parse.lo udns_resolver.lo udns_init.lo
udns_misc.lo udns_XtoX.lo udns_rr_a.lo udns_rr_ptr.lo udns_rr_mx.lo
udns_rr_txt.lo udns_bl.lo udns_rr_srv.lo udns_rr_naptr.lo
udns_codes.lo udns_jran.lo
ld: unknown option: --soname
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libudns.so.0] Error 1
-------------------------------------

It seems there is some issue with --soname option in certain OSX
versions, see http://old.nabble.com/Compile-Error-ipe-7.0.10-Mac-OS-X-10.5-%28Leopard%29-td27668421.html#a27668421


udns Makefile.in indeed makes usage of such option:

Makefile.in in udns-0.1 contains this:
-----------------------------
sharedlib: $(SOLIBV)

$(SOLIBV): $(SOBJS)
        $(CC) -shared -Wl,--soname,$(SOLIBV) -o $@ $(SOBJS)
-----------------------------

Is there some workaround for this?

Thanks a lot.
