Sure, sticking a -ffriend-injection into Makefile is fine forme.

Great, thanks a lot!

Why do you think it will break compatibility at the binary level?  The
reference to friends in http://www.codesourcery.com/cxx-abi/abi.html
suggests no such thing.  Maybe it makes a difference with another
compiler but binary compatibility shouldn't be an issue in this case
with at least GCC.  Do you have a reference saying otherwise?
