if and only iff nothing in its depency chain uses CSW libs, or has
/opt/csw/X11/lib in its path.
you would have to recursively parse the entire tree.
App
libOne.so
libTwo.so
libThree.so
libFour.so
libFive.so
libSix.so
libSeven.so
ALL dynamic objects above, would have to be parsed, for "App".

Possibly. It would be good if the error message explicitly explained
how to override it, and also an explaination of when it is appropriate
vs not appropriate.
