    Description

      libraries should always be specified by full path, and -L/-l flags should be only constructed to invoke the linker if actually needed.

      from this follows, that libraryPaths is an unnecessary property for the toolchain.

      fwiw, a somewhat equivalent property will be necessary for configure probes which need to locate external dependencies first, but that's a different matter.
