In the grand old days, Homebrew installed to `/usr/local` and all was well. Now, however, while Intel Homebrew still does this, Apple Silicon / M1 / M2 Homebrew has gone and picked a new prefix: `/opt/homebrew`. A good explanation of the rationale is at https://earthly.dev/blog/homebrew-on-m1/. Basically, Homebrew had to admit that Fink and MacPorts were right. :-P The solution is to call `brew --prefix` and add those libraries explicitly to the search list. Keep going if brew is not installed. This addresses #252.
