In the update from 6.7.2 to 6.7.3, commit `ea0f00d5d` changed how linker
flags like `ws2_32` are treated when generating pri/prl files.
Specifically, before the commit a flag like `ws2_32` was left
untouched. The above commit changed it such that such flags are
converted to `-lws2_32` (seemingly in order to better support FFmpeg,
according to the commit message). However, this change also affects
absolute paths if the file has no extension. That is, after the above
mentioned commit, an absolute path linker flag to, say, a dylib on macOS
without a suffix will result in prepending the `-l` flag. This will
result in errors during link time.
An example where this caused problems can be found in the nixpkgs PR
draft #367206 (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/367206).
This adds a small check to ensure that `-l` is not prepended if the
linker flag is an absolute path without a suffix.
