What's the link line (both the libtool command and the ld or gcc
command which it prints) which is exhibiting the improper behavior? I
just ran a little test, and "gcc -Lfoo -Lbar test.c -la" seems to
prefer a static "liba" library in foo to a shared "liba" library in
bar. So even if gcc is putting /usr/local/lib in the standard library
path, it should still pick up the static libraries in preference to
the shared ones unless libtool is doing something weird.
