Re: /usr/local/lib on library path


>From the gcc info (`info gcc`), chapter "Environment variables":
`LIBRARY_PATH'
     The value of `LIBRARY_PATH' is a colon-separated list of
     directories, much like `PATH'.  When configured as a native
     compiler, GCC tries the directories thus specified when searching
     for special linker files, if it can't find them using
     `GCC_EXEC_PREFIX'.  Linking using GCC also uses these directories
     when searching for ordinary libraries for the `-l' option (but
     directories specified with `-L' come first).

I think this is what you need - if not, try being more specific (or read 
the other answers you'll probably get).

Ciao!
