Somewhere, a few moons ago, I found a link problem that only manifested
on my non-RH systems, because a particular library happened to be in
/usr/lib under the default RH install.  On the other boxes, something in
the insight/gdb build was failing to link due to the missing library --
which was present in the tree, just not in a directory that was searched.
I sent a message to some list somewhere, but I don't recall which.
I should hunt it down just for completeness.

Thanks very much for the help!
