Yeah (its -rpath in ld).
If I don't have the objects "handy", its a pain to rebuild
the application.
I did something like:
1 :mleisner@valisk; ld -o gs.new2 gs-test --rpath ~/marty/lib/
That's really all I wanted to do...(I tried -rpath and --rpath).
Seems to me it should be reasonable for the linker to read in an
executable and write out an executable (or some other simple program).
