I did that on trunk (for gnustep-make 2.6.0).  Please give it a
try and let me know if it doesn't work. :-)

Thanks

Absolute install paths are commonly used on OS X and save a lot of hassles looking up indirect libraries. This is true in particular when porting GNUstep projects which follow the sloppy Unix habits of specifying library search path on incompletely. This is OK for an elf linker, but the OS X linker is a bit more picky here. See also the recent OS X related discussions on gnustep-discuss.
Therefore, I would like to see --enable-absolute-install-paths become the default on OS X (at least for the gnu-gnu-gnu combo).
