The `-rpath' option may also be used on SunOS. By default, on SunOS, the linker will form a runtime search patch out of all the `-L' options it is given. If a `-rpath' option is used, the runtime search path will be formed exclusively using the `-rpath' options, ignoring the `-L' options. This can be useful when using gcc, which adds many `-L' options which may be on NFS mounted filesystems.
Reading it again now, it's not clear if "SunOS" also means "Solaris".
I see. This is indeed SunOS 4 only. Regards, Martin
