Since the z/OS linker does not support searching dynamic libraries, and the current setting of CC_LD_DYNPATH results in a directory to be supplied to the link step with no option as the suffix, it causes a linker error because the z/OS LD linker does not accept directories as input. Therefore, we workaround this by adding the -L option.
Hmph, do we still need that CC_LD_DYNPATH hack, with 07bbe4ca (Merge branch 'jc/make-libpath-template', 2024-02-06) already in 'master'?
And, Introduced z/OS (OS/390) as a platform in config.mak.uname
Add support for z/OS (OS/390) in config.mak.uname. or something (cf. Documentation/SubmittingPatches)?
