Unfortunately this is currently a system-dependent thing.
What I tend to do is to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_RUN_PATH
environment variables before invoking "configure", but this
is admittedly unsatisfactory.
You might take a look at libtool, but it's a bit overkill for
you. Bruno Haible has proposed a simpler facility, but I don't
offhand recall its current state.
