there are a lot of related things you can do though... just look at 'man dyld'
Doh123:
Yes it does. Look it up for FreeBSD.

No it doesn't. Like doh123 said run 'man dyld.' Mac OS X/Darwin uses it's own C library and kernel, with bits of Free/Net/OpenBSD mixed in. But more importantly to this discussion, it uses its own dynamic linker - dyld. LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't do anything on OS X. Saying it does doesn't make it so. The equivalent environment vars are DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH. Again, a quick look at the dyld man page would have told you that.
Grow a clue and stop giving advice until you do. It's getting old.
I'm pulling this from another source. Thank you for the correction.
I'll give the source a pointer in the right direction. I guess I'm
mixing Solaris/RedHat and Macs again...(Apples and whatever.)
Interestingly enough, LD_LIBRARY_PATH seems to work on my Mac. I'll fix
that though.
