So I tried various incantations of SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES and all had no effect:

So I am obviously not seeing the forest for the trees..

Hmm. I have no access to Mac OS X, but the PLplot developer who has access to that platform dealt with this issue to his own satisfaction. To follow
what we do, please look at
http://plplot.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/plplot/trunk/.

cmake/modules/rpath.cmake leaves USE_RPATH undefined in the Darwin case because we found that setting anything to do with RPATH on Mac OS X caused
problems (at least according to the note in that file).

LIB_DIR is defined in cmake/modules/instdirs.cmake.  Bydefault it
is equivalent to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib

src/CMakeLists.txt invokes  SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES (for the USE_RPATH
undefined case) as follows:

set_target_properties(
plplot${LIB_TAG}
PROPERTIES SOVERSION ${plplot_SOVERSION}
VERSION ${plplot_VERSION}
INSTALL_NAME_DIR "${LIB_DIR}"
)

So that is not essentially different from what you did aside from the quotes on ${LIB_DIR}. You might want to try the quotes to see if they matter.

Other considerations that come to mind are did you try the test starting from an empty build tree and actually run "make install" in the build tree
before testing run-time access to the library in the install tree?

Yes, my library is small enough where I can start completely fresh each time. After running make install I run "otool -L ..." on the installed library which reports back NO rpath is set. Just the libname, which means I have to add the path to my DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, which will cause a problem for other reasons.

THanks for the suggestions. I will try them later this weekend.
