I'm trying out emacs with native-comp on nix (working on this branch
here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/94637), and am stumbling
over a problem that is pretty specific to nix, it seems: As nix isolates
each package to a "store" directory, you have to set specific linker
flags so that gcc-jit can find -lgccjit and -lgcc_ext. This is currently
done via the $LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, which works but seems
pretty hackish to me (least of all because it isn't a thing that's
supported on the darwin cctools linker - there, you have to pass the
linker path as command-line arguments).

I feel like it would be much better if users could specify the gcc
driver flags directly, via gcc_jit_context_add_driver_option
(
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/jit/topics/contexts.html#c.gcc_jit_context_add_driver_option
).

That way, instead of overriding environment variables which might get
reset in child processes' wrapper scripts, an emacs installation could
more directly influence the compilation step.

Thanks,
Andreas.
