This is what is done by the configure.in, so on fc5 there is
nothing to add in LDFLAGS to have dap support.

> * on FC6-devel, 'dag-config --libs' won't work!!

In the version in devel the libdap library has been 
split in 3: libdapclient, libdapserver and libdap. 
gdal needs to link against what is provided by libdapclient.
In that version `dap-config --libs` provides only libdap.
So it doesn't work, and that's why dap-config --clients-libs
has to be added in LDFLAGS.

In the previous version (in FC5), the libdap library is linked 
with dap-config --libs and since it is not split everything
is okay.

That's approximately what is done in the latest autoconf macro.
I'll propose a patch for the spec file shortly.
