Where "-Wl,-R,/some/directory" and "-Wl,-rpath,/some/directory" are
different ways of saying the same thing.
FreeBSD by default ldconfigs the files in /usr/local/lib. On my
systems those libraries need -L but don't need runpath information.
The -Wl,-rpath options are needed only for locations that the runtime
linker does not already know about. I have added a TODO to add this
to the Postfix XXX_README build instructions.
