Nope.  libfoo.la goes wherever -rpath specified when the library was
created; it should be the same directory that is specified at install
time.  This is often $(libdir), but it doesn't have to be.

I don't know how to arrange for an additional directory (bindir) to
be specifiable without introducing an additional command-line option.
Remember, libtool doesn't know about prefix, libdir or bindir, it just
knows about what it's given in the command line.
