Yes it is Linux. Michael Wild was kind enough to help me through a few
problems off list, but the original problem was that -L only specifies
the library path to use at compile time. That is, this path is not
saved in the executable, so when the executable is run, it doesn't
know where to find the libraries (if they aren't on LD_LIBRARY_PATH).
The fix was either to add them to LD_LIBRARY_PATH or to embed the
paths into the executable via RPATH.
