Yea same results when adding to ld.so.conf.. I even modified the 
configure script and hardcoded the path to libol-config. I don't get it. 
I just compiled about 30 packages from source, openssl, httpd, nagios, 
opennms, etc.... Not a single problem with any of them, but low and 
behold syslog-ng can't even get past configure.

Almost at a giving up point.
