Hmm. Solaris

I remember that once upon a time setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH had no effect
on the process itself (only on child processes) on 64 bit Linux, because
the runtime saved that value before loading the first shared library.
Maybe Solaris does the same?
In this case it might help to reexec the program. Something like
if "ORACLE_HOME" not in os.environ:
# Need to set env and reexec
os.environ["ORACLE_HOME"] = ...
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"] = ...
...
os.execv(sys.argv[0], sys.argv)
# real content starts here
