I personally don't use it, I too get the "=> not found" message unless I put 
the ldd command in a script that does an EXPORT of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I was just curious.  Thanks for the info tho.

Subject: Re: [hlcoders] hl2mp fresh source compilation for linux crashing on 
startup

It adds a rather useless RPATH entry into the dynlib's "dynamic" table,
as obvious when running "readelf -d server_i486.so". I'd say "avoid the
useless cruft"; as far as I know, SRCDS sets the paths correctly before
the ld.so magic, and if you have set some bad paths while compiling, you
might even end up with some old versions of the dylibs (from the hidden
buttcracks of your file system) being loaded... later maybe even
crashing SRCDS because of some sort of mismatch.

... so I wouldn't do it. My fix should do well enough without the
crash-type dangers. (I hope I remember correctly that SRCDS sets the
path right...)
