This is a patch to fix up the linking. It does two things. First, it makes libmultipath.so install to /lib/ just like a normal shared library, so you don't have to use -rpath to link to it. Second, and more importantly, it moves the libaio linking into libcheckdirectio.so, where it belongs. Since libcheckdirectio.so is a dynamic shared object, multipath and multipathd don't know what functions they need to link in from libaio. This fixes the directio lockup for me.
