not sure how widespread it is, but I just ran into this today with
"ledger" [1]_, built manually via 'configure --prefix=/usr/local'
but linked against pkgsrc libraries.. Granted I could set LDFLAGS,
force this in ~/.profile (or better, get it into pkgsrc :), but in might
save the hassle if it happens frequently (this is the only thing so far
I've not built out of pkgsrc or /usr/src) ..

whether it's 'right' or not is another question entirely..
