HEAD doesn't cope with libraries in non-default locations

CVS tip fails with
./configure --with-openssl \

It appears that somebody has changed things so that the -L switches
appear after the -l switches (ie, too late). I'm too tired to
investigate now, but my money is on Autoconf 2.59 being the problem ...
