Greetings all.
According to the thread from the Sun Studio C++ forum, it is recommended
that that reliance on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables be avoided. Rather,
it is recommended that such references be added to executables using
the RPATH setting.
To this end, a revised patch and ChangeLog have been included below that
attempt to resolve this issue in the recommended manner.
Cool! Have you checked to make sure the -R option works on
Linux? If so, go ahead and commit it. Otherwise let's either
guard the change for that OS or remove it.
Thanks
Martin

ChangeLog:
* sunpro.config (SHARED_LDFLAGS): Add -R$(LIBDIR) switch so
$(LIBDIR) is included in the runtime library search path of linked
executables.
