Why in the world would you want that? (Honest question!) Wouldn't it be enough if you used $(libdir), and told your users that if they want to shoot themselves mildly in the foot, they could still use ./configure --bindir=/some/where/bin --libdir=/some/where/bin/lib ? I mean, this convention goes against all I've ever seen on a *nix system. If instead you are out to get things working on w32 systems, then be encouraged to use Libtool, read about -no-undefined, and don't mess with libdir at all. Slightly confused, Ralf
