* Do not set LD_LIBRARY_PATH; it breaks many things. E.g., SuSE's ssh

  dynamically links against libdb4 (?!), due to LD_LIBRARY_PATH it picks 
  up our libdb4 instead of SuSE's libdb4, but our libdb4 uses another 
  glibc so loading barfs.

  Instead, all packages should use rpaths to store library locations in
  executables/libraries.  The disadvantage is that overriding rpaths is 
  harder.  (It is possible by invoking the dynamic linker directly, e.g., 
  `/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --ignore-path LIST program args...' to ignore the 
  rpath for the libraries in LIST).  It would be better to use DT_RUNPATH, 
  which is consulted by the dynamic linker *after* LD_LIBRARY_PATH but 
  *before* ld.so.cache and the system directories.
