Quite the opposite. LD_LIBRARY_PATH should only be used to override
the compiled-in run path, so this is the correct behaviour. Normally
LD_LIBRARY_PATH shouldn't be set at all. Solaris has the same
behaviour and it works great.

Which is stupid. Programs that use libs in /usr/local/lib should have
/usr/local/lib in their runpath. To ensure that all apps you link
have /usr/local/lib in their runpath, set LD_RUN_PATH to
/usr/local/lib in your profile instead.
