@Ben: I don't have any problems wit the diff you submitted so why don't you
turn it in to a full changeset.

As for where to place linker options like "-Ldirectory", I think I would defer
to Mike on that.  The command in mkoctfile.in.cc is


      std::string cmd
        = (vars["DL_LD"] + ' ' + vars["ALL_CXXFLAGS"] + ' '
           + vars["DL_LDFLAGS"] + ' ' + pass_on_options
           + " -o " + octfile + ' ' + objfiles + ' ' + libfiles + ' '
           + ldflags + ' ' + vars["LFLAGS"] + ' ' + octave_libs + ' '
           + vars["OCT_LINK_OPTS"] + ' ' + vars["OCT_LINK_DEPS"]);


If this is known at configure time it could go in to the variable
OCT_LINK_OPTS.

Alternatively, it could go into a regular shell environment variable LFLAGS.

The naming convention of LFLAGS (which are really for lex flags) rather than
using the stand LDFLAGS is already the subject of bug report #48678.
