I think I prefer the non-light version. Things should just work out of the box,
so we should detect when this is needed and add it. The compiler/version
detection seems a bit convoluted though, couldn't we just do something like:

AC_LANG_PUSH([C++])
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[ ]], [[
#if !defined(__GNUC__) || !defined(__MINGW32__) || (__GNUC__ < 4) || (__GNUC__
== 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ < 5)
#error "Not MingW GCC or older than version 4.5"
#endif
]])], [
  EXTRA_MPLEX_LDFLAGS="-Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc-v2"
], [
  EXTRA_MPLEX_LDFLAGS=""
])
AC_LANG_POP([C++])

?

Also, could you by any chance give us a link or two that points to some
background about why this is needed exactly?
