Well, I performed the comment exchange in the Makefile ...
I hope that's legitimate.  (Seems to be OK, in this case.)

It sure looks like we're specifying the right libraries,
and libq.dylib does exist in libq/.libs.
Strange that it doesn't see those symbols.

On the "good news" front:  I loaded Q-4.5 last night,
and it compiled/installed just fine.

For awhile, I was convinced that 'libtool' was acting up on Q 5.3,
but it's the same between 4.5 and 5.3.

Thank you for the tips and advice!
I'll play with this alternate way of selecting the libraries.
