My config.mak has this multi-word line (for dynamic SDL)

                SDL_LIBS=-L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread

and it works fine. I'm not sure why its not working for you. At least its not
the length, as I have longer LIB lines which work (tho none of them are static).

Assuming its owned by root:root, chmod 555 should be enough (mine is currently
set to 755).
