My best guess is that you have Boehm GC installed in non-standard
`lib' directory, like /usr/local/lib/libgc.*.  /usr/local/lib is
standard of course, however the w3m installer doesn't treat it so.
I'm not an exception, and am always annoying with it.  My solution
is to set the LDFLAGS environment variable as /usr/local/lib before
building w3m.
