Actually, /sw/lib is not in DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on the buildbot. Only PATH,
PYTHONPATH, and PKG_CONFIG_PATH are prepended with Fink related paths.

I'm not sure if it is a good idea to force any particular order on the
build system flags that we get from the pkg-config files. I guess the
problem is that both -L/sw/lib and -L/usr/lib is being used when building
DOLFIN? Is both really needed? On the buildbot only -L/sw/lib is used.
