[Buildroot] host directories in target rpath

Hi all,
I noticed I have bunch of target executables with host directories in RPATH:
$ readelf -d output/target/usr/bin/aserver | grep RPATH
0x0000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/build/alsa-lib-1.0.29/src/.libs]
$ readelf -d output/target/usr/bin/glib-compile-resources | grep RPATH
0x0000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/build/libglib2-2.46.1/gio/.libs:/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/build/libglib2-2.46.1/gobject/.libs:/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/build/libglib2-2.46.1/gmodule/.libs:/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/build/libglib2-2.46.1/glib/.libs:/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabihf/sysroot/usr/lib]
$ readelf -d output/target/usr/bin/weston | grep RPATH
0x0000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [/home/alex/src/buildroot.snow/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabihf/sysroot/usr/lib]
It does not break anything, but it's not right either.
And it makes strace output look rather messy.
A quick way to check it is building alsa-lib, which is where aserver comes from.
The underlying cause is libtool, and for autoreconfed packages I can fix it
by patching (host-)libtool. This fixes alsa-lib but not weston because weston
carries that code in its pre-built configure. So I have to either patch weston
in place (and also every non-autoreconfed package), or autoreconf them all.
What's your thoughts on this? Maybe there are better ways to fix it?
