This particular scenario I've not checked personally. I never use non-default-searched library paths for anything. I certainly agree that libtool needs to support that case, though. dlopened modules are something of a special case; it's one of the places where Debian may not remove *.la files depending on the specific situation. -- Russ Allbery (address@hidden) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
