You could do that, I can see how that would be useful, but I think it
might be less confusing to just use the platform's way of doing that. 
For instance, on OS X, you can set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable to put directories in front of the normal search path, and
DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH to put directories in back of the normal
search path.
