OK. I didn't know there was a variable war path as well :).

I'll first ask a question. LD_LIBRARY_PATH (DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, PATH)
is already being used by the operating system to search for the
library. What I don't understand why OSG needs to append these to the
filename and do the search itself? Doesn't the operating system
already doing it if you provide just a filename?

Just in case, it is possible to add "." (ie current directory) to
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. (ie ".:/usr/lib").

In my experience, OSG_LIBRARY_PATH (in
Registry::initLibraryFilePathList) is enough to customize the plugin
loading paths.
