Ruby uses the linker (ld) directly. Default behaviour on Tru64 is
to prefer shared libs before static libs. Using -oldstyle_liblookup
reverses this behaviour.

This is similar to the GCC fix, which causes a link with 'gcc -o xxx'
to call the ld linker with this flag.

With this patch and an installed OpenPKG libiconv rpm, the
Ruby iconv extension now rightly links to the OpenPKG lib:

/openpkg/RPM/TMP/ruby-1.8.2/ext/iconv $ ldd iconv.so

        Main  =>   iconv.so
        libm.so  =>   /usr/shlib/libm.so
        libc.so  =>   /usr/shlib/libc.so

^^ no more system libiconv.so dependency.
