Cross-compiling to win32 from a unix system reveals a bug - the
path-separator has been set to ";" depending on the target system.
However, the crossgcc search_path_spec works in a unix-environment
with unix-style directories and unix-stylish path_separator. The
result: the search_path_spec is a single word still containing the
":" separators.
This macro fixes the situation: when we see the libtool PATH_SEP to
be ":" and search_path_spec to contain ":" characters, then these
are replaced with spaces to let the resulting string work as a
for-loop argument in libtool scripts that resolve -no-undefined
libraries.
Later libtool generations have fixed the situation with using
$PATH_SEPARATOR in the first place as the original path delimiter
that will be scanned for and replaced into spaces.
