Good question.
My autotools knowledge grows around some vacuum
bubbles since a few years. Much of it is still
a riddle to me.

I understand that variables CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS,
LDFLAGS, LIBS directly influence the compilation
command.
Reading man ld on GNU/Linux
  -Lsearchdir [...]
     The directories are searched in the order in
     which they are specified on the command line.
     Directories specified on the command line are
     searched before the default directories.

i would try

  make clean
  export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib"
  ./configure ...options...
  make

So you should read the documentation of your
linker for a similar promise.


Have a nice day :)
