Only for GNU ld I suspect.

This would break on Solaris when using Sun's linker, which supports -R but
not -rpath. Perhaps the correct value for the "-R/-rpath" flag can be made
a property of the linker? There is already some special case code in
init-link-flags for different linker types and perhaps this logic could be
placed there.
