Hi,

I found some problems in the latest version (3.7.2) caused
by the modification for the bug #732:
    Bug 732 - configure --with-zlib-lib or --with-jpeg-lib fails in IRIX
    http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732

The priginal problem <1> could be quickly fixed, but this
fix caused the other problem <2>...

I tried to build this release (3.7.2) under the following
environment:
    CPU: i386 family
    OS: FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE
    Compiler: gcc-2.95.4 (/usr/bin/gcc)
    Linker: GNU ld 2.12.1 (/usr/bin/ld)


============================================================
<1> configure: NOT "-rpath/xxx/yyy" but "-rpath /xxx/yyy"
------------------------------------------------------------
*** Problem

When I executed the configure script with --enable-rpath and
--with-(jpeg|zlib)-*, it fails with the following message:
----------
checking for inflateEnd in -lz... no
configure: error: Zlib library not found at /usr/local/zlib/lib
----------

------------------------------------------------------------
*** Cause

tiff-3.7.2/config.log says
----------
configure:23179: checking for inflateEnd in -lz
configure:23209: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -rpath/usr/local/zlib/lib
-L/usr/local/zlib/lib  conftest.c -lz  -lm -lc  >&5
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: bad -rpath option
configure:23215: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
----------
This means the wrong usage of the -rpath option; you should
have INSERTED space characters between "-rpath" and the
directory. Note that
  -R/path/to/dir      ... OK
  -R /path/to/dir     ... OK
  -rpath/path/to/dir  ... NG
  -rpath /path/to/dir ... OK
under the GNU ld.

------------------------------------------------------------
*** Solution

Users should apply the following patch:

============================================================
<2> libport.* (tiff-3.7.2/port): Shared object is generated
------------------------------------------------------------
*** Problem

It seems that adding -rpath options to LDFLAGS causes
libtool to generate the shared object libport.so at
tiff-3.7.2/port.

The library libport.* should have been linked statically,
NOT dynamically; otherwise the tools built can't be used
because this shared object is NOT installed at
$(prefix)/lib.

============================================================


I'm happy if you give me any comments for solving this
problem...

Thanks,
