hi, there!

Are you sure this change is right? As my copy of ELF specifications 
from Intel's Tool Interface Standards states, the linker should have 
the following order of searching (pg. 2-15):

%%%
- First, the dynamic array tag DT_RPATH may give a string that holds a 
list of directories separated by colons (:). For example, the string 
/home/dir/lib:/home/dir2/lib: tells the dynamic linker to search first 
the directory /home/dir/lib, then /home/dir2/lib and then the current 
directory to find dependencies.

- Second, a variable called LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the process environment 
may hold a list of directories as above, optionally followed by a 
semicolon and another directory list.

[skip]

All LD_LIBRARY_PATH directories are searched after those from DT_RPATH.
%%%

I'm almost sure this change should be reverted. Please also see PR 
#28406 and the commit log for revision 1.21 of 
src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c.

Best regards,
Alexey.
