Perhaps, on OSX, scons should be taught to use absolute paths to
external libraries? That way the embedded RPATH would always be correct.
OSX is sort of specail in this respect, compared to other unixish
platforms (linux, Solaris ... anything else moderately alive still out
there?).

Sadly I've no idea how to tell scons anything like that ...
