Hi, the latest NetBSD related commits (configure.ac/Makefile.am) break the compilation on Linux. Variable assignments mustn't have whitespace, otherwise have_libdl and as a result HAVE_LIBDL is not defined.
To fix the issue though, I'd simply recommend to remove the hard coded -ldl from Makefile.am instead of the proposed solution. The AC_CHECK_LIB macro [2] already appends -ldl to LIBS, depending on the outcome of the check [2]. The global LIBS variable (similar to CFLAGS e.g.) is used for linking all binaries. Linked (see, I learned my lesson :-p) is the patch [1] to address this. The only downside of AC_CHECK_LIB is, that it assigns -ldl (and -lrt) to the global LIBS variable. This means that all binaries are linked with -ldl -lrt, as mentioned above, even if they don't need them (i.e. ommysql/ompsql plugin, rklogd rfc3195d). I can prepare a patch to address this issue correctly, if wanted.
