In other words, what's shown by "readelf -d /bin/path | fgrep PATH", if
anything, else the default path of "/usr/lib" (assuming LD_LIBRARY_PATH
is not set in the environment and /etc/ld.so.conf is empty or missing).
See ld.elf_so(1). (which isn't perfectly clear on search order, unlike
the latest FreeBSD ld.so(1))
