I have a better solution that does not require serializing environment
variable access:  do your own search.  Do full path dlopen-s first,
using the paths you otherwise would have put into LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
If they fail, then fall back to whatever the glibc would otherwise
do (maybe even using LD_LIBRARY_PATH -- it hasn't been touched).
