           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
First, you should have said ``$(LIB_FLAGS) -O2''.  But it's a bad idea to 
put -lxlib into compilation switches, because -lxlib should go to the end 
of the command line, so the library is scanned AFTER all the object 
files.  It's best to put -lxlib and such into a separate variable called 
(by convention) $(LOADLIBES); then put it on the link commands only, you 
don't need to add it to the compile-only rules that use gcc -c.
