I've hacked in to gnetlist a command line option to add directories to
the search path for a backend, enabling me to use a backend that is
not in the system path and not play with my normal .gafrc (I used -L
to mimic compilers searching for a library).  Seems like that could've
come in handy here (although wouldn't help the bootstrapping problem
faced now).  I could clean up the patch and send it in if the devs
think this is a good idea.
