Thanks for including me.

Part of my original problem is related to me trying to create a binary
package for a Linux distribution, so I use "make install" with an
out-of-the-way file prefix.  So library A isn't really getting installed.

I hope you all come with a solution that works at least for linux.  How about
installing a script with the package that will do the relinking at "final
installation" time on those pesky OS's where absolute paths of library files
are encoded.
