If my logic is correct, this should be mitigated somewhat by placing the 
needed library path at the end of the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH ? Which is why I opted 
for the ~suffix~ argument in the ~wrap-program~ .

I believe this exact behaviour is achieved by ~(search-input-file inputs "lib/
libcurl.so")~ . When I first attempted to build the ~wrap-program~ call I had 
a nesting error which explicitly showed that "/gnu/store/hash-curl/lib" is of 
unexpected type. Am I wrong?
