    ocamlmklib adds absolute directories (that is, such starting with
    '/') given to -L to run-time library search path passed to the
    lower linker using -Wl,-rpath=

    This is a problem, because even if we add the right directory with
    -Wl,-rpath= or variants thereof, the wrong path still is in the
    RPATH on the resulting binary. This might lead to the wrong library
    being found at run-time.

    To build clean packages when using ocamlmklib, '-elfmode' will switch
    this behaviour off; when using '-elfmode', all following -L parameters
    won't augment the RPATH, and it has to be updated seperately with
    -dllpath, -Wl,-rpath= etc.

    (This is a local pkgsrc stopgap addition, needed to proceed with
    fixes to xentools41. The issue has been raised with upstream;
    hopefully this patch can be reverted with a future ocaml package
    version.)
