IOW, if you have a directory set up on LD_LIBRARY_PATH or its equivalent, can't you just dump the libraries and C extensions there?
Darwin has a pair of environment variables that are sort-of equivalent to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, however, their values are cached by the runtime linker (dyld) as soon as a process starts. Since a new process has to be started to use these from this environment anyway, (a) is the better option because setting these environment variables have panDYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH or DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH has penalties associated with it.
I guess it's too early for me to be multitastking, but that was supposed to say "these environment variables have penalties associated with them".
