patch

The attached patch fixes the problem (I've gotten confirmation from 2 people)
but I didn't really understand why. In writing this, I think I see why now --

Linking with i965_dri.la (which contains a list of libraries i965_dri.so is
linked against) should have i965_symbols_test linked with those libraries too.
In i965_dri.la we have

# Linker flags that can not go in dependency_libs.
inherited_linker_flags=''

# Libraries that this one depends upon.
dependency_libs=' -L../../../../../lib -ldricore -lexpat -lpthread -ldl -lglsl
-ldrm_intel -ldrm -lxcb-dri2'

Since it's trying to link with -ldricore -lglsl but not being able to find
them, I have to think that -L../../../../../lib shouldn't be in dependency_libs
but rather in inherited_linker_flags.

If someone wants to `make i965_dri.la`, move the -L flag to
inherited_linker_flags and then run `make i965_symbols_test` to confirm my
theory, I'd appreciate it.

All this is probably moot thought. Eric suggested killing the symbols test.
