configure is trying this and "figuring out" that cc "needs" these values.
Since our patches put libtool in outside of configure's knowledge, I would
suggest deleting the references to TCL_LD_SEARCH_FLAGS. If we really do need
the -rpath flags, they should go in the same place as the -R flags.

While compiling x11/tk 8.2.3, I've discovered the same problem under
unix/Makefile.in. In line 213, you have
TK_CC_SEARCH_FLAGS     = -Wl,-rpath,${LIB_RUNTIME_DIR}:/usr/X11R6/lib
which again sends libtool for a loop, and can be commented out (or moved 
to the libtool call). Should I open another PR for this, or is this one
good enough?

Thanks,
David
