Are you experiencing particular problems? Anyway, I think the -rpath flag is now useless and can be removed, IIRC it was used to help OpenBSD systems in finding libgd (which is now static). Maybe we should delay the patch after branching, Paolo?
Feel free to push the patch, I do not think it requires branching
Was that directed at me or Stefano?
