Hi!
  I've recently found compiler complaints about unknown option -R.
This option is passed to libtool and I think it should be translated as
-Wl,--rpath -Wl,<path> for the compiler.
  It seems that libtool is doing it correctly, but sometimes (not for
every link) forgets to remove the original -R option, which causes the
following:

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=3Dlink --tag=3DCXX g++  -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -=

  The compilation is not aborted, all this seems harmless, but who knows...
  Should I upgrade my libtool, or is it a KDE-specific problem ? Maybe
it appeared with my upgrade to gcc-3.0.4, but I didn't touch libtool
during this.
