Dave,
Thanks for the tips. Looking into the problem further, the build
system for this package is in bad shape -- it's trying to build and manage
shared libraries without the help of libtool, which would take care of
this -install_name problem (among other issues). I'll try to work with
the lead developer on fixing this.
