Things to consider:

AFAIK gaf encodes rpath into executables, so think about using
- --disable-rpath, and then checking the new build with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/test/usr/lib.  That's at *runtime*.

As for *link* time, I wonder if CFLAGS=-L/tmp/test/usr/lib can help.  Or
even -rpath-link /tmp/test/usr/lib, and IIRC there might be a
LIBRARY_PATH environment variable that can help.
