Can we call 'gcc.init-link-flags' before 'inherit-rules' here, as opposed to 
moving this block of code to 'init'?

I think we can still release M10 with those failures. But maybe, you can run 
the tests with 

searched_lib.py darwin --verbose
library_order.py darwin --verbose

and sent me the output. I might got some suggestions.
