Did you make sure to `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH`? (I'm not sure what the 
equivalent might be for different shells).  This is likely the problem 
if you see a difference between the output of
`ldd /path/to/gimp2.5/bin/gimp`
and
`ldd --library-path /path/to/gimp2.5/lib /path/to/gimp2.5/bin/gimp`

Note that you can check for sure if this might be the problem by running 
gimp2.5 directly with the overridden library path
`/lib/ld-2.7.so --library-path /path/to/gimp2.5/lib 
/path/to/gimp2.5/bin/gimp`
