Yes, I think you just confused yourself. For _truly new libraries_ and non-standard locations, you may have to use a combination of autoconf / configure to specify what goes into the plugin maker. But for something as common as the GSL, this not an issue. If I misunderstood your question and you are wondering how to generally modify the plugin components: you probably want to look at the code in the inline package, as well as for the R commands. As I recall, every variable set in the plugin environment gets passed on before system() is called. So you could try PKG_CFLAGS etc as documented for R CMD INSTALL et al.
