Under many commercial systems that support shared libraries, they offer an option on the ld command line called -rpath or -R to let you specify the directories to search for shared libraries at run time. I was wondering if some form of this capability will be added to FreeBSD's ld at some point in the future? And yes, I know about ldconfig, but not everyone that compiles software has root access, and setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH can get confusing for the average user for large software packages (like Khoros.. :) Any information appreciated.
