Is there a more portable way of doing this, via configure maybe?

It doesn't look to me like we handle rpath switch syntax via configure,
but by setting variables in the port-specific makefiles.  Maybe you
could extend that scheme so that the switch name is available separately
from $(libdir).

The HPUX case is slightly peculiar because we essentially force rpath to
be used always; enable_rpath is disregarded and we stick what would be
the rpath switches directly into LDFLAGS.  It might be cleaner if it
did this by setting enable_rpath true in the port makefile, instead of
bypassing the rpath variable mechanism altogether.
