Summary:                    Build fails on F-13 because of implicit linking
Description: 
On Fedora 13, the implicit linking feature of LD has been disabled. The
reason, from the fedora wiki page
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange is :

The default behaviour for ld allows users to 'indirectly' link to required
objects/libraries through intermediate objects/libraries. While this is
convenient, it can also be dangerous because it makes your program's
dependencies tied to the dependencies of other objects. If those objects
ever change their linkages, they can break your program without any changes
to your own code.

Grisbi is affected, I've attached a patch to fix the build. Feel free to
adapt it as needed, I'm no autoconf expert.

Err... I tried to attache the patch to Mantis but it fails (APPLICATION
ERROR http://grisbi.tuxfamily.org/mantis/view.php?id=504 -- No file was
uploaded. Please go back and Choose a file before

It looks like all my failed attempts at attaching a file have actually
created tickets ! Sorry about that, please close tickets from 1092 to 1096.
I can't even do it myself... :-(
