I added code to filter out -L/usr/lib and -L/usr/lib64 because we're doing it for gphoto2 already, presumably to avoid trouble on 64bit Linux systems. I'm not sure if that was a gphoto2-specific issue or if it should be done more systematically. If the latter, then there are other places that don't do that filtering: libxml-2.0, libxslt, hal and freetype (but then maybe they don't report the -L settings). If the filtering is not desired, then I can resubmit.
We have only had problems with it with gphoto2 as far as I know. If some other libraries have the same problem then it can be added for them, but I don't see a need to do it systematically.
