Oh, wow. Excellent debugging, sir. :-)

I have seen this before, too, so fixing it is not too hard -- it is a
problem with the order of libraries in the variables passed to libtool.
Of course, the solution is far from elegant.

Michael: Can the attached tiny patch be applied, please. It fixes this
problem (yes, I know libtool is horrible, but we'll take that as read).

Cheers,
Malcolm
