 I don't understand why that should be a problem. If there's nothing in the 
rpath recorded paths, it should be equal to not having that rpath at all, 
shouldn't it?

 --disable-rpath doesn't work since the libtool upgrade, because the new 
libtool adds rpaths automatically. I'm not sure what the proper solution is, 
but as a fast patch you can edit admin/libtool.m4.in and remove every --rpath 
(the format of --rpath varies a bit on different platforms) and LD_RUN_PATH 
(replace with e.g. LD_RUN_PATH_DUMMY).
