We're dumping relative paths like "../../lib" into the library search
paths written into the shr.o files. (Use "dump -Hv" to examine them.)
It should probably be the library install path. Or possibly we
shouldn't be setting it (by using -bnolibpath).

I'm not sure why, but "../../lib" is confusing gdb when I examine core
files produced by programs three levels down from the top (e.g.,
lib/krb5/krb/t_ser). It's probably a gdb bug.

Actually, it looks like -bnolibpath doesn't avoid putting in a library path, it cancels out the
computed one generated from the -L options. With -bnolibpath, I get /usr/lib:/lib as the
library path.

We should be putting in a library path in the same situations we do on
other OSes.

I think we should have an option to avoid library paths on other oses,
but that's another matter entirely.
