The "-lrt" removal is a known bug in OS X.  (Last I heard, OpenBSD also
has the same bug).  Normally -l<foo> means "link to the <foo> library",
but -lrt (and a few others) are required by POSIX to succeed even if the
library in question does not exist -- on some platforms (OS X included)
the functions normally provided in librt are instead merged into libc.
