    A long time ago, TS-562, we made some changes to (I think?) properly use -rpath with the libtool macros. See commit 449a4e4d83a6665a25371deca36b29ba7f4359df.
    
    I don't know what has happened since then.

> When compiling with custom paths for OpenSSL, PCRE, Zlib etc where the paths are in non-standard locations, even if the configure script passes, the libraries may not be linked if their lib path is not in the standard path checked by ld.
> The libraries can be found if extra linker options are passed like -Wl,--rpath=/path/to/lib/dir, but it would make sense to add this automatically on systems that support it if the path is passed to the configure script using --with-openssl=... etc.
