Public bug reported:

configure.ac sets LIBINDICATOR_LIBS+="$LIBM" , which is fine as long as
the valie of LIBINICATOR_LIBS had a trailing space first.  pkg-config
0.29 at least (other versions and variants are likely too) does not add
a trailing space after the libs output, in the results from
PKG_CHECK_MODULES.  This results in the linker flags for libindicator.so
having '-lglib-2.0-lm', as shown here:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=413560

The fix is fairly simple, just add a leading space prior to $LIBM, which
should really be done every time values are appended to variables.
