Description

Because of the way that dynamic linking works on MacOS, to be able to redistribute dynamic libraries it is necessary to include the path to the library in the executable.

Attached is a patch (from the MacPorts people) to make relocation much, much easier using MacOS's 'install_name_tool'.
