"builds easily out of the box" is somewhat misleading in this
context. yes, if you use --prefix=${LOCALBASE}, it may build cleanly,
but it _will_ look in prefix/{include,lib} when you use it.

this is utterly broken, and the reason we do not put it in
${LOCALBASE}.

in short, it is a gcc problem (just like the lack of implicit rpath
to find it's own libraries!). it is exposed by the way we "hide"
includes and libs.
