Re: -F parameter appears not to be passed in OS X

[Matthew Landauer]

Thanks for that! That's a really good workaround. I'm productive again! :-)

Maybe I'm misunderstanding things but shouldn't libtool understand "-F"? 
It knows how to interpret -framework and -F goes with that as much as -L 
goes along with -l for normal linking.
