complibs/cloog: fix linking with libm

In Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10, the default options for ld have changed.
--no-copy-dt-needed-entries and --as-needed are now enabled by default, which
causes errors like:

[EXTRA] Checking CLooG/ppl

This patch fixes these errors by placing '-lm' at the right place on the command
line as libppl requires libm when linking cloog.

fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.

     5
The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
