gettext 0.10.40 build problem exposed by tar-1.13.25 on IRIX 6.5

[Paul Eggert]

[This appears to be a problem in tar/m4/gettext.m4, which is taken
from gettext 0.10.40, so I'm forwarding this message to the gettext
bug list.  You can get a copy of the tarball in question at

Subject: tar-1.13.25 and SGI IRIX 6.5

A stock build of tar-1.13.25 on SGI IRIX 6.5 produces a tar executable
that does not record the locations of the shared libraries used to link
it.

After several experiments, I found a workaround:

        make CC="gcc -L /usr/local/lib32 -rpath /usr/local/lib32"

It does not work to set this in the LIBS variable, because that comes
after the -liconv option, which produces an executable that fails like this:

% ldd src/tar
1016931: 09:06:45 src/tar: rld: Fatal Error exit/longjmp: Cannot Successfully 
map soname 'libintl.so.2' under any of the filenames
