Thanks for the pointers, Geoff. It turns out it had nothing to do with
run-time library searching and everything to do with my lack of experience
with autoconf. I had to export PKG_CONFIG_PATH pointing to
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig before running configure, and then everything went
fine.

Did you run "ldconfig" after making changes to the ld.so.conf files to
reflect the new library?  

I'd actually try running with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to /usr/local/lib to make
sure the right libraries are loaded in the right order: 

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

You can also use the "ldd" program to see exactly what shared libraries are
being loaded by the program:

ldd /usr/local/bin/openvas-client (or wherever it is).


Changes you make via the libtool suite and LD_LIRBARY_PATH environmental
variable will show up when you run "ldd."
