address a specific issue on solaris with gcc -m32 -fstack-protector

To avoid an undefined symbol __stack_chk_fail_local due to compiling
and linking gcc not seeing the same flags, we need to trick libtool
into passing a flag it would otherwise remove.

Please hold your whitespace ocds and exclude the non-standard indent
chosen to avoid excessive line length.
