[ale] Oddness from gcc and configure

Taking a stab in the dark here (OW! that hurt :) ...

The key here is that it's in /usr/local/lib and therefore probably not in a
directory that the executable expects to find it in. There might be an
environment variable you can set (LDLIBRARYPATH, maybe?). But I usually just
resort to:

ln -s /usr/local/lib/mylib.so.0 /lib/mylib.so.0

and so forth until I quit seeing error messages. OK, until I quit seeing
*showstopping* error msgs. :)
