TCC treats -nostdlib and -Wl,-nostdlib as equivalent, but on other compilers which call a discrete linker, -nostdlib behaves as on tcc (not adding startfiles/libc/endfiles) by modifying the ld command line, but -Wl,-nostdlib adds -nostdlib to the ld cmdline, which stops the linker searching the default directories for libraries.
