Using chrpath doesn't seem like the right way to fix this.

When I build Subversion the module in the build directory has an RPATH
that refers to the build directory:

$ objdump -x subversion/mod_dav_svn/.libs/mod_dav_svn.so | grep RPATH
  RPATH /home/pm/sw/subversion/obj/subversion/libsvn_repos/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj/subversion/libsvn_fs/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj/subversion/libsvn_delta/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj/subversion/libsvn_subr/.libs:/usr/local/subversion/lib

When I run 'make install' it uses apxs to install the module and this
relinks the module, creating .libs/mod_dav_svn.soT, which has no
references to the build directory:

$ objdump -x subversion/mod_dav_svn/.libs/mod_dav_svn.soT | grep RPATH
  RPATH /usr/local/subversion/lib

The relink command uses Apache's installed libtool. After running
'make install DESTDIR=zz' I can reproduce the relink using:

$ (cd subversion/mod_dav_svn/ && /usr/local/apache2/build/libtool --mode=install cp mod_dav_svn.la /home/pm/sw/subversion/obj/zz/usr/local/apache2/modules/)

I'm using Debian's patched libtool so perhaps it works slightly
differently, but if your libtool is leaving behind references to the
build dir then that seems like a bug. When I run the libtool relink
command it prints the gcc command used to relink, what do you see when
you run it?
