"This option also has an effect on the resolution of symbols in dynamic
libraries. With the default setting dynamic libraries mentioned on the
command line will be recursively searched, following their DT_NEEDED
tags to other libraries, in order to resolve symbols required by the
output binary. With --no-copy-dt-needed-entries specified however the
searching of dynamic libraries that follow it will stop with the dynamic
library itself. No DT_NEEDED links will be traversed to resolve symbols."

If so, I would be against it. What are we

Less magic behaviour.

Binary compatibility with fedora,debian and ubuntu,removing or adding
NEEDED entries count as a ABI change to me at least =)
