I just want to point out that it's possible LDFLAGS=-L${LOCALBASE}/lib
is still needed depending on the compiler.  Some compilers may look
there by default (thus LDFLAG not needed) but others may not.  I'm not
saying this commit is wrong, only that the justification "it builds on
standard runs" can be dangerous thinking.

LDFLAGS should be set if "-L" is not explicitly set, in general.
Usually one of the USES tools will bring it in though.
