It seems that the build still works, without this patch but without
the rest of my series too, because we end up passing
  -L/u/iwj/work/xen.git/tools/../tools/libs/toolcore
  -Wl,-rpath-link=/u/iwj/work/xen.git/tools/../tools/libs/toolcore
(or similar) on the qemu link line.  So when ld links against
libxenstore (say) it finds that xenstore needs toolcore and finds
toolcore in the relevant paths.

We still need this patch for the rest of the series, though.

Ian.
