Something like the attached patch should work for mpfr.There are several problems with it. First, I assume that LOADLIBES should contain $(AM_CPPFLAGS) too. But the main problem is the inconsistent flags order: in the compile command, $(AM_CPPFLAGS) appears before $(CPPFLAGS), while in the link command, $(GMP_LIBS) appears after $(LDFLAGS). This means that if the user uses both --with-gmp and CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS to provide search directories, the include and library search paths will be inconsistent.
Ok, this is not a libtool bug though. When it can libtool will add the path to the .so instead of -L -l for libraries in the build dir. On many systems this works, but HP-UX is one of those systems where it does not, so -L -l are used instead. This can cause problems when an older version of the library is installed in $prefix.
Sorry that I can't help more. Thanks, Peter
