    Fix Linux RPATH of various external modules · 1d028d47

    ...as discussed in 371cc81b "external/liborcus:
    Fix Linux RPATH:"
    
    * When an external module produces multiple libraries (that we all install) that
      depend on each other, they need to contain $ORIGIN in RPATH (strictly
      speaking, those that do not depend on any other libraries from the module
      would not need that, but it is harmless and easier to do that way).
    
    * When an external module's libraries depend on other external modules'
      libraries, and (at least some of) those other external modules are not
      configuread as --with-system-*, they need to contain $ORIGIN in RPATH (again,
      for simplicity, some libraries may get that even if they would not strictly
      need it).
    
    * Try to outsmart the external modules' libtool instances to not add (ultimately
      bogus) paths to RPATH for dependencies on libraries from external modules
      (either from the same module, or from anohter module not configured as
      --with-system-*).  The only time we do not outsmart libtool, and instead rely
      on it (hopefully?) doing the right thing is when a given external modules'
      libraries depend on libraries from excatly one other external module, and the
      latter is configured as --with-system-*.
    
    * That outsmarting means that if an external library depends both on external
      libraries provided by modules not configured as --with-system-* (so RPATH
      contains $ORIGIN, and the outsmarting is not suppressed) and on external
      libraries provided by modules configured as --with-system-*:  Then if the
      latter are in unusual locations on the system that would require an RPATH
      entry (which might be provided via the corresponding "pkg-config --libs", say,
      and presumably would be honoured by libtool if we did not outsmart it), then
      those paths are now erroneously missing from RPATH.
    
    * That outsmarting also causes linking of some utility applications in module
      redland to fail, but those are ultimately unused, so cut them off by patching
      their respective sub-directory Makefile.in.
