I've run into a linker error when building with IBM XLC++
in a directory whose name contains a comma (see below).
The problem is that we're passing the absolute pathname
of $BUILDDIR/lib to the linker via the -Wl compiler driver
option. This option uses the comma to separate individual
arguments from one another. I don't know if it's worth
trying to deal with this or not but I thought I'd mention
it in case someone else runs into the same problem or in
case Andrew has an idea for how to fix it.
