Vorbis - Feb 2001 - libdl and building under NetBSD

I am trying to configure vorbis-tools-1.0beta. (I already built libvorbis,
libao, and libogg.) This is under NetBSD 1.5.1_ALPHA i386. My plan is to
create NetBSD packages for Ogg Vorbis.

My config.log has:

 configure:1897: gcc -o conftest  -I/usr/local/include
 -I/usr/local/include
 -L/usr/local/lib/ -L/usr/pkg/emul/linux/  conftest.c  -L/usr/local/lib -lao
 -ldl 1>&5
 /usr/bin/ld: cannot open -ldl: No such file or directory
 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
 configure: failed program was:
 #line 1887 "configure"
 #include "confdefs.h"

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <ao/ao.h>

 int main() {
  return 0; 
 ; return 0; }

What is this libdl? (I know it is a dynamic linker library.)

I read that NetBSD doesn't have libdl.

Any ideas on how can I workaround this libdl problem?

Anyone else use ogg vorbis under NetBSD?

Thanks,

I'm pretty sure all the BSD's share this problem.  the dl*() functions
are in the main clibrary somewhere.

What you'll need to do is remove -ldl from the Makefile.am or the
configure.in (it's declared explicitly in one of those).  And that
should be a short term workaround.  We'll have to add detection into the
system.  When we put the code in, we weren't aware that some systems
existed with dl support but without libdl :)
