Summary:                    TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS redefine CC with TARGET_CFLAGS
but not TARGET_LDFLAGS
Description: 
In package/Makefile.in, we have:
TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS= ...
               CC="$(TARGET_CROSS)gcc $(TARGET_CFLAGS)" \

So, instead of passing CFLAGS=$(TARGET_CFLAGS), we define it as part of
the CC execution string, which is fine. However, we don't pass
TARGET_LDFLAGS here, which is just as important -- in particular for
external toolchains, where the LDFLAGS are necessary to link with
$(STAGING_DIR)/lib.

But TARGET_LDFLAGS are passed in:
LD="$(TARGET_CROSS)ld $(TARGET_LDFLAGS)"

Do not understand why linker flags are needed on compile CC stage.
Could you please explain what particular problem are you facing with?

regards,
Ivan
