incorrect LD_LIBRARY_PATH for binary wrapper script using non-recursive make

[Marcel Martin]

Hello,
I'm using libtool 1.5.18 on Solaris 9 and I've encountered what seems to be a 
bug in libtool's wrapper script for uninstalled programs. It sets an 
incorrect LD_LIBRARY_PATH so the programs won't run.

I've converted my entire project to use just one Makefile.am (read "Recursive 
Make Considered Harmful" by Peter Miller available at 
http://aegis.sourceforge.net/auug97.pdf if you want to know why).

Since the source code of the project is of course still in subdirectories, I 
need to specify paths relative to the root directory of the project within 
Makefile.am:
lib_LTLIBRARIES = src/libmylib.la
src_libmylib_la_SOURCES = src/calculator.cpp

The only program is a unit test located in a tests/ subdirectory:
check_PROGRAMS = tests/mytestprog
tests_mytestprog_SOURCES = tests/calculatortest.cpp
tests_mytestprog_LDADD = src/libmylib.la

The library and "mytestprog" compile and link fine (I use "make check" for 
that). However, I can't run "mytestprog":
[...]
make  check-TESTS
make[1]: Entering directory `/homes/mmartin/mylib'
ld.so.1: /homes/mmartin/mylib/tests/.libs/mytestprog: fatal: libmylib.so.0: 
open failed: No such file or directory

(/homes/mmartin/mylib/ is the project directory)
Adding an appropriate "echo" to the wrapper script tests/mytestprog told me 
that it sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /homes/mmartin/mylib/tests/src/.libs, which 
is not correct because the library is in /homes/mmartin/mylib/src/.libs/.

My experience with libtool is limited so I don't know if I'm perhaps using it 
incorrectly. I have the problem with Solaris 9 on both x86 and SPARC, it 
works on GNU/Linux (x86), however.

I've prepared a minimal example exhibiting the error, it's available at
http://w148.de/~mmartin/misc/mylib-0.1.tar.gz

Thanks for any help,
Marcel
