[Openmp-dev] [cfe-dev] CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX vs -fopenmp and clang search library search path

Indeed, no one else seems to be using libomp.so (*), so we're free to take it. Let's do that.

(*) Searching for "libomp.so" on Google gives only a page of results: There is a library on HP-UX, but it seems to live on /usr/lib/hpux{32,64} on those systems, and this is not a concern regardless. The first hit, amusingly enough, is my BG/Q makefile for our OpenMP library. There's essentially nothing else.
