I can't get around this issue, it's strange...

I tried patching the Makefile to no avail.  In fact, switching to the
build dir and running

	make LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath=/gnu/store/bjzsjkgd0dz9l0liva0axqqifakrrb67-lvm2-2.02.177/lib

does not change the RPATH of the resulting library.  Am I missing something?
NixOS seems to be able to package it without further changes.

	https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/os-specific/linux/lvm2/default.nix

Can someone try to build lxv2 with 

	"--enable-dmeventd" ; Requires '--enable-cmdlib'

added to the configure flags?
