Grumble.

Isn't this a platform bug?  I mean, if you specify to build with dtrace,
maybe the -lelf should be implicit, or something.  I assume there's a
manpage in FreeBSD for this stuff, what does it say?

If we need to workaround, I guess we could add a SEARCH_AC_LIBS to
configure when DTrace is specified (maybe only on freebsd?).
