That might be a good idea. Does it solve this particular problem
(adding -R flags even if configure doesn't add any -L flags)?
I have never looked into how smartlink works.
For those of you who are not familiar with Pike, smartlink is a shell
script that is wrapped around the linker (or really around $CC, I
think) in Pike's build environment.
