The AC_LIB_LINKFLAGs macro does not output '-rpath DIR' when DIR is an apparent known directory, such as /usr/lib or in some cases also /usr/local/lih. But relying on $sys_lib_search_path from libtool would be a bad idea: in some cases the value returned by libtool is wrong. It's simply too tricky, and therefore I'm glad the AC_LIB_LINKFLAGs macros in their current form don't need to rely on such a tricky thing. Bruno
