+ # Why are newly built .so's preloaded anyway? Because run-time
+ # .so lookup path embedded into application takes precedence
+ # over LD_LIBRARY_PATH and as result application ends up linking

+ # newly built .so's we trick run-time linker to fail to find
+ # the installed .so by setting _RLD_ROOT variable.
