Because Libtool was not used to create libB.dylib, it does not know how to
adjust the environment to find it. You have to do that.
You can put the path to libB in your environment, or you can add a flag to
hard-code that path when libA.la is used.
Do that by adding an RPATH specification like this:
libA_la_LIBADD = $(LIBM) -Ldir/to/ -rpath dir/to/ -lB
Hope that solves your issue.
