Rhide have specs similary as gcc (another syntax though) which You can
specify in file rhide.env in current directory to redefine the builtin
values and to define new ones 

Maybe You can run some program after linking by redefining linking specs. 

I haven't tried this so You should look into RHIDE sources yourself how to
do that (file idespec.cc is good starting point for that)
