OK, I run BSDI here, and this is the first time I have heard of this
problem. The original line is clearly wrong. Doing a 'gmake distclean'
I see:

#$ rgrep soname
./Makefile.shlib: LDFLAGS_SL := -x -Bshareable -soname $(shlib)
./Makefile.shlib: LDFLAGS_SL := -x -shared -soname $(shlib)
./Makefile.shlib: LDFLAGS_SL := -Bdynamic -shared -soname $(shlib)

Now, configure is generating other files that have some bug where the
-soname does not have the proper handling. Can you point me to where
this problem may be coming from?
