Numerous attempts finally yielded an LDFLAGS in the top-level Makefile with
sufficient quoting:
LDFLAGS = -Wl,-rpath-link,'/path/to/gcc-4.4.0/lib64' -Wl,-rpath-link,'/path/to/gcc-4.4.0/lib' -Wl,-rpath-link,'/path/to/lib64' -Wl,-rpath-link,'/path/to/lib' -Wl,-rpath-link,'/path/to/glibc/lib' -Wl,-rpath,'\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$ORIGIN/../lib64' -Wl,-rpath,'\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$ORIGIN/../lib' -Wl,-rpath,'\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$ORIGIN/../../lib64' -Wl,-rpath,'\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$ORIGIN/../../lib' -Wl,-rpath,'\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$\\\\\\\$$\$$\\\$$\$$ORIGIN/../../glibc/lib' -L/path/to/lib -L/path/to/lib64 -L/path/to/glibc/lib -Wl,--dynamic-linker,/path/to/glibc/lib/ld-linux.so.2 -Wl,-z,origin -Wl,--enable-new-dtags
My build script starts out with this (only the relevant option is shown):
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,'\$ORIGIN'/../lib"
and then, for gcc, transforms it like this:
LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS//\$ORIGIN/\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\$\$\\\$\$\\\\\\\$\$\\\$\$\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\$\$\\\$\$\\\\\\\$\$\\\$\$ORIGIN}"
yielding the needed result in the Makefile (hopefully that showed up as a
single line after going through my email system)
Not exactly convenient for the common hominid. Perhaps a "--with-rpath" option
is in order.
