Yeah, you're doing additional things, so it's a new feature.  The fact
that you were able to reuse existing code is commendable but does not
create an exception.

The "rpath" feature behaves consistently across platforms and PostgreSQL
makes consistent use of it, so it does not qualify as a porting issue.
The last thing I'd want to see is that every platform looks for the
libraries in different ways.
