I've finally tracked this one down, turns out it's nowhere near the code
I thought it'd be in -- instead Libtool's just discarding -L parameters
during prog,link.

I've fixed that (patch mailed to -patches), and this makes prog mode
behave the same as lib mode now, it'll pass:

        -L/opt/libxml/lib -lxml2

to the compiler (instead of /usr/lib/libxml2.so for the latter arg).


I've also decided that the lack of an rpath is actually right for
non-libtool libraries, we should only hardcode paths of libtool
libraries because we have more control over those.
