The manpage for ld says "Directories specified with -L are searched in the order they appear on the command line and before the default search path."

So, the problem above is that -L/usr/lib is before -L${prefix}/lib (getting ${prefix} before -L/usr/local/lib could also help prevent problems for people who have stuff in /usr/local)
