But it _IS_ - this is what confuses me.

That is what the -R and -L/-l flags are for.  The -R allows you to
point at uninstalled libraries to resolve addresses against (these
file names do not get included in the linked file), the -L inserts the
run-time library path.  If you Do The Right Thing (tm) then you do not
need the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

probably.

Yes, I believe this is being done but things are not working right.

I think this problem has departed somewhat from the list topic.  Can
we take this offline?  I would appreciate some help with getting this
fixed and you sound like you know something about libtool.... :-)
