Yes, certainly.  The reason I specified OS X in particular is that I
only tested the darwin branch of Makefile.shlib.  The -install_name
switch that was the problem there is specific to OS X, but I wouldn't
be surprised if some of the other branches have their own platform-
specific issues.

Very possibly, but unless it's being tested it's no sure bet.
