Allow specifying exact filenames for -l in lwlink Allow prefixing a library name with a colon (":") to instruct lwlink to search for a file with exactly the specified name in the library path. There is no change for existing behaviour if there is no colon prefix. Thus: -lfoo -> looks for "libfoo.a" -l:foo -> looks for exactly "foo"
