my guess is that the reason for your issue was that the check for libcap should
not overwrite rtlibs but define something like caplibs and use those later,
additionally to rtlibs.

if config.CheckLib('libcap'):
    confdefs.append("#define HAVE_LIBCAP 1\n")
    # System library - no special flags
    rtlibs = ["-lcap"]
[....]


I've pushed a fix for that (including a hopefully proper definition of necessary
linkage with -lcap), please pull the current head and see if it works for you.


Cheers,

Bernd
