How would you like to handle the case where the compiler looks in 
/usr/local/lib by default, and there is no way to tell it not to look 
there other than by disabling all of its defaults?

I have noticed that packages which use pkg-config can cause paths like 
/usr/local/lib to be picked up.  Pkg-config is not part of autoconf, 
but configure scripts commonly use it.
