Hi Guys,

  OK - I have checked in a patch to remove support for $PLATFORM in rpath
  search strings.  This seems to be the safest thing to do, as I was never
  sure that the support would actually be correct anyway.

Cheers
  Nick

thanks, but there still seems to be another issue, now seen on x86_64-linux-gnu
as well. Filed as PR20784.
