We've been talking a lot about /usr/bin.

How do you envision the same issues playing out in /usr/lib?

Do we force developers who want their apps to link to a consistent set of
libraries from one machine to the next to use -R/usr/sun/lib?

One thing we've found over the years is that developers are either
unwilling to use -R, don't know about it, or don't use it correctly.  In
general, forcing its use appears to be problematic.

Or do you see another solution?
