     This seems like it's a serious problem for any program that might
want to use multiple libraries that each use dynamic linking via
ltdl (and that could include guile itself using some such library).  
Someone with strictly positive clout should bring this up with libtool's 
authors (localizing search paths).  
   If environment variable override is a must, they should let the 
individual library choose the variable name,  or a prefix (like GUILE -> 
GUILE_LIBRARY_PATH) (or choose to go along with the global 
LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH).
