I don't know much about autotools internals, but I think, that if you link
using libtool for example to a library -lrs232 and that library was built and
installed using libtool, it will try to lookup librs232.la file and then use
information inside it(libdir value?) to replace -lrs232 option with absolute
path to that library file.
