When doing a cross compiling it is common to use EXTRA_CFLAGS with
--sysroot option to point to alternate root filesystem. This already
works as expected for objects and executables, it just doesn't work
correctly for shared libraries.

When a shared library is linked using CC this flag needs to
be passed in order for libraries to be found.

After several thoughts, I am afraid of the possible side effects
of such a change.
I think only LDFLAGS should be used when linking.
If you need the same parameters at compilation and linking,
you should pass the same parameters to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

Let me try same thing with EXTRA_LDFLAGS
