Gnumake 3.54 does not use the vpath mechanism to look for
library files (-lfoo.a).  While finding the cause of this bug,
I also found another bug which prevents library files from
being found in the current directory (unlike the claim in
"CHANGES" under 3.51).  The following patch fixes both of
these problems.
