I found some interesting reading here:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4280189
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=707176
However, since my script will not work without the sysproperty, one of the
following must be true:
a) the described behaviour of java.library.path has changed in Tiger
b) the implementation of sysproperty uses the hack described in 707176
c) it was never true that you couldn't change java.library.pathprogrammatically
Tonight I will be downloading ANT sources from my unrestricted network
access ...
Sadly, I still do not have an elegant solution to my problem

Thank you for taking an interest.
Our tests have always been forked and I do want to avoid hacks, which is
why I am coming to this forum.
This is what I have so far ( lib.package contains all shared objects ):
<property name="junit.lib.path" value="${java.library.path}${
path.separator}${lib.package}" />
<junit failureproperty=" junit.failed"
fork="true"
includeAntRuntime="true"
dir="${basedir}"
showoutput="true">
<classpath>
<path refid="test.classpath"/>
</classpath>
<!-- we now reset java.library.path to something specific to this
project -->
<sysproperty key="java.library.path" path="${junit.lib.path}"/>
<!--
However, it doesn't seem to work under Linux. Native libraries
needed
by Java are loaded correctly but other native libraries needed by
native libraries loaded by Java cannot be found
None of the following worked (aside from not being platform
independent)
<sysproperty key="LD_LIBRARY_PATH" path="${junit.lib.path}"/>
<env key="LD_LIBRARY_PATH" path="${ junit.lib.path}" />
<env key="LD_LIBRARY_PATH" path="${env.LD_LIBRARY_PATH }${
path.separator}${lib.package}" />
<env key="LD_LIBRARY_PATH" path="${ env.LD_LIBRARY_PATH}${
path.separator}${lib.package}" />
the following also works on Windows if you also remove the sysproperty
above, however this
is not platform independent and should be avoided
<env key="PATH" path="${ junit.lib.path}" />
-->
<formatter type="xml"/>
<formatter type="plain"/>
<batchtest todir="${ testresults.dir}">
<fileset dir="${src.test}">
<include name="**/*Test*.java"/>
</fileset>
</batchtest>
</junit>
