Implicitly, AC_CHECK_LIB and stuff. The idea is that not all programs
actually need libm.so. If we stuff -lm into LIBS, every dumb program
gets linked to libm.so whether it needs some math functions or not.

src/tests/deqp:
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40034000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40056000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

Doesn't look right to me. Hence GSL_LIBS.
