 @defvar LOADLIBES
-  This variable contains a list of libraries all programs in this
-  directory needs to be linked to.
+  This variable contains a list linker switches to load additional
+  libraries. You usually specify here -L and -l switches.
+
+  Note: The value of this variable is not used used by OMK for any purpose
+  other than linker invocation. Therefore dependency handling of shared
+  libraries does not work if the library is specified in LOADLIBES
+  instead of lib_LOADLIBES.
