Hi,
A system version might get included first from the standard library paths, sure.

There is "$sys_lib_search_path_spec" which is set by the macro
"AC_LIBTOOL_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER" and determines the system libraries
search paths. Macro is declared in libtool/autoconf.

Try patching your makefile.am and configure.ac. The way I would do it,
set the newer library as its fully specified path, (and not just
"libnco). But it sounds like you've already found how to do that.

As the other guy says, must then regenerate the configure script from
the patched Makefile.am. *Don't* patch on top of configure or
configure.in directly. So thats why you should add these to your
portfile:

>> use_autoreconf yes
>> autoreconf.args -fvi

Otherwise patching the Makefile.am will be useless.
