We probably should be editing the .la files buring the install process. Actually, probably should edit the .pc and *-config scripts too. We need to remove unnecessary libs from dependency_libs in .la files and the config/pc files, also need to remove -L%p/lib and -I%p/include from these to help make sure we get correct ordering of includes etc.
