Actually (and it's rare to have to 'correct' Dan), but the libs are looked
for in the directories named in /etc/ld.so.conf and then the "trusted
directories", which are /lib and then /usr/lib (or the corresponding 64-bit
directories).

Just wanted to be thorough here, as Dan failed to mention /lib.
