>Description:
apache/module.mk uses apxs to build apache modules. apxs does not
understand the compiler/linker argument -R, and expects all linker
arguments to be prefixed with -Wl,

LDFLAGS in www/ap-gzip is:

 -L/usr/pkg/lib -R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/lib -R/usr/lib

(XXX why is /usr/lib here? it shouldn't be..)

changing _COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG in sunpro.mk to -Wl,-R makes apxs work
as expected.
>How-To-Repeat:
attempt to build an apache module w/ sunpro.
>Fix:
the reason sunpro.mk doesn't use -Wl,-R is because the C++ compiler
only understands the rpath argument -R.

I'm not sure what the correct fix is, but one possibility is setting
_COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG=-Wl,-R and stripping the -Wl, bit in the C++
wrapper.
