Not an objection, but a comment/question:

Would -rpath-link=/some/where be the "correct" thing to use in cases like
subversion-perl and libapreq2 (in Extras) where a lib needs to be linked with
another one produced during the same build, but not found without specifying the
directory to them?  If so, ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid::_unix_os2_ext() could perhaps
be taught about that (+ the corresponding -Wl,rpath-link,...), which it would
process more or less like -L apart from not stuffing it into LD_RUN_PATH.

Currently if one tries to use -Wl,rpath-link, MM doesn't recognize the option
which seems to eventually lead to libs in that dir not being found by
_unix_os2_ext() and consequently dropped from the list of libs to actually link
with.
