I guess I should have said "if needed". If the libraries that it wants are in one of the compiler's default search paths, then there's no need for a "-L". In fact, the issue may arise due to some disconnect between the C toolchain and Python. I say "Python" rather than "python-config" because the latter obtains its info from the former, and just massages it a bit. Personally, I consider python-config to be conceptually broken, but waf seems rather wedded to it.
