I've noticed as of updating pkgsrc today that the shared library
checks are broken when using DESTDIR (at least I think it's related to
that).  I naturally suspect the changes in check/check-shlibs.mk.
lang/lua is one example where this happens; I think GNU readline is
another.

Have you noticed this?

I'm also having a problem in devel/gettext-tools with
${WRKSRC}/autoconf-link-lib/configure if building with GNU iconv. It
seems that it can't resolve a symbol (which exists) in libintl.so (bad
rpath)?  I'm not sure if this is related or not, though.

Please let me know what you think.
