While building uclibc for MIPS I ran into the issue of whether or not the dynamic linker should use an executables rpath when searching for its libraries. Apparently the glibc dynamic linker does this, but the uclibc one does not and back when this was discussed in 2011 the decision was made not to change the uclibc behaviour because the ELF spec does not say that the linker should do this.
At the risk of of reopening a closed issue I was wondering if we could consider putting the code to do this in under an ifdef or a config option so that those of us who want it could have it without having to maintain a local patch for it. If not, I will just maintain my local patch.
