That nearly works.
I initially tried "EXTRA_LDFLAGS=-LC:/lib/location" but it seems that
because I use static libraries I have to link to libz - and Prima doesn't
provide the '-lz' argument.
So I tried "EXTRA_LDFLAGS=-LC:/lib/location -lz", but that places libz at
the head of the queue, and I think it needs to be *appended* to the other
end of the queue - so I still got "undefined references" to various libz
symbols.
It's unusual that there's a need to specify the location of the libraries as
that location is specified in $Config{libpth} and perl therefore has no
problem finding them.
I assume it's needed only because the configure process (conducted by the
Makefile.PL) is unaware of that location.
It's no big deal for me - my Prima build is scripted, and it doesn't really
bother me what that script contains.
And things are currently working fine if I prepend '-lgomp' to the LIBS arg
I give to Makefile.PL.
Cheers,
Rob
