[Bug 796429] [NEW] Ignores wrong option -nostdlibs

[Pan Yongzhi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gcc-4.5

-nostdlibs is a typo of -nostdlib. gcc silently ignores this type and
link to the standard libraries.

Sample output:
$ make -B no-header-files-example
gcc -Wall -pedantic -std=c99 -nostdlibs -o no-header-files-example no-header-files-example.c
$ ./no-header-files-example
