Vinay Sajip added the comment: I have updated the patch to apply against 3.6, and changed it to be more conservative: it only uses ld and LD_LIBRARY_PATH when trying to find a library if the existing gcc-based method fails.
Seeing that this issue has been around for so long, I would really like to get this patch committed in the short window we have before 3.6 goes into beta.
