I don't agree that there must be an option to fall back to system provided libs. The point of using an SDK is to avoid doing that because you might end up with a binary that won't work on an earlier version of the OS (the OpenSSL one is an example of that).

I agree that the documentation/comments should be extended to not that additional work would be needed when we start looking for files that aren't headers or libraries.

BTW. I still don't quite understand why the build did fail for you in the first place. Is your source tree in /usr/local as well?
