You can see my 1.2.3 Linux/GCC version (final result, not .in) here:

By looking at the current Makefile.in and output Makefile for various
static/shared and system options, it should be relatively easy to work
backwards from mine to a "Makefile.both.in", so to speak.  (I was going
to but never found time. ;-) )
