Summary: Fix for LD_LIBRARY_PATH inheritance on SunOS when -shared

Initial Comment:
The attached patch fixes a problem whereby building
with --enable-shared fails if the user already has
an LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting.  The absence of
{}'s can cause a failure to interpolate the existing
values.

Tested on Solaris 2.6, but "should" work equally
well on the other affected platforms (Linux, HP-UX
and OSF).

Patch from Jeff Hobbs.

This is the last unresolved priority >= 7 issue for Python
2.3.  Martin, David, can you guys make a final decision
about this and either lower the priority or close the bug
report?

I fail to see the point of this patch. The curly braces
should not have any effect, and indeed, I can't see any
effect on Linux here.

This sounds like probably the right thing to me, but I don't
have any expertise.  At the least, the patch needs to be
made against configure.in.  If we can resolve this in the
next 30 minutes, I'm okay with it.  If not, let's wait.
