well obviously check that the flags you want to add are actually on the
command line...

but apparently LDFLAGS don't

hmmm... you could try editing these and adding your options there:

solenv/inc/unxgcc.mk:LINKFLAGSSHLGUI= -shared
solenv/inc/unxgcc.mk:LINKFLAGSSHLCUI= -shared

of course the best would be to convert the module to the new build
system and send a patch :)
