It won't intefere with ldconfig, but it will affect what the dynamic
linker does. If you have "/usr/lib" in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH then the
dynamic linker will find libc there, rather than in "/usr/lib/aout" as
it should.
I don't know why it didn't cause problems for you earlier.
This was netscape, right? If so, there's an easy fix. The command
that you execute for netscape is really a shell script which does
some stuff and then executes a big binary somewhere else. You could
add "unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH" to that shell script to work around the
problem.
