If I had known that this was possible I would have done it myself already.
;-) This is a good idea in general because in a default installation
pgaccess won't find libpgtcl on any system because it doesn't have the
benefit of the -rpath/-R business. Please review/remove the note at the
end of the pgaccess ref page if you fix this to your satisfaction.
