I was able to test this this morning. Changing -Wl to both -W (just
removing the "l") and -Wall seem to compile fine. I think I'm
going to stich with -Wall since I see the majority of other programs in the
husky package seem to use it.

I'm unsure whether it's going to work or not yet, as I don't have any
config files in place. Still building the system as I write this. :)
