When curl is built with rtmp support, `curl-config --libs` give -lrtmp for the linker line when dynamically linking.  But this is wrong, it is only needed when statically linking.  The problem extends to other libraries as well, eg -lgnutls.  In fact, libcurl.pc has it correct:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lcurl
Libs.private: -lrtmp -lz -lgnutls -lssl3 -lsmime3 -lnss3 -lnssutil3 -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -llber -lldap -lz
and yet
curl-config --libs gives
-lcurl -lrtmp -lz -lgnutls -lssl3 -lsmime3 -lnss3 -lnssutil3 -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -llber -lldap -lz
This was hit on a Gentoo system.  The downstream report is at
