New submission from Maciej Bliziński: On Solaris, when you want to link shared libraries from custom directories, you most often don't modify the system search path, but instead set RPATH in your binaries. For example, OpenCSW packages Python into /opt/csw, and sets Python executable's RPATH to /opt/csw/lib. Therefore, dynamically opening shared libraries will by default look into /opt/csw/lib first, and find_library should do the same. I wrote a sample implementation.
