+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+# AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS([FLAG1 FLAG2 ...], [FLAGS-VARIABLE], [EXTRA-FLAGS], [INPUT])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+# For every FLAG1, FLAG2 it is checked whether the linker works with the
+# flag. If it does, the flag is added FLAGS-VARIABLE
+#
+# If FLAGS-VARIABLE is not specified, the linker's flags (LDFLAGS) is
+# used. During the check the flag is always added to the linker's flags.
+#
+# If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the linker's default flags
+# when the check is done. The check is thus made with the flags: "LDFLAGS
+# EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG". This can for example be used to force the linker to
+# issue an error when a bad flag is given.
+#
+# INPUT gives an alternative input source to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
+#
+# NOTE: This macro depends on the AX_APPEND_FLAG and AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG.
+# Please keep this macro in sync with AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS.
