    Can we override it in pkgsrc?  Maybe by setting an empty LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    or something like that?  pkgsrc is the one that is creating the
    restricted environment, I see no reason why it can't handle it.

    The real problem here is that until the linker is changed to use rpaths
    by default, we are stuck with the pathing mechanism... we can't require
    that normal users use -rpath options in their compiles.
