Hi again,

In any case, the patch looks wrong, the ld manual confirms that -rpath
is the correct option.
In fact I agree, but I think we both got confused because the patch, as
posted, is inverted, is in fact meant to replace -- with -, not the
other way round ;)
Thus the poster seems right, but we have been using -- for ages and it
works fine at least on Linux (note, in case isn't obvious to everyone,
that check-performance isn't really supported for all the targets
supported by the library in general), thus, in my opinion, before
changing it we should check again the docs and in case apply the patch
to mainline only, maybe only 4.8 too.
Paolo.
