Based on my reading of the Makefile (and the 'src/Makefile'), I think we should be using MYCFLAGS and MYLDFLAGS. CFLAGS and LDFLAGS include MYCFLAGS and MYLDFLAGS, respectively, but they also include some default flags and platform-dependent flags. By setting CFLAGS and LDFLAGS directly, we lose those default and platform-dependent values. By the way, '-ldl' does get passed to GCC in 'src/Makefile', but I don't think it gets passed to the linker, although my knowledge here is not strong.
