Took me some digging, but the system properties are loaded after the jvm
is started. The only way to define them in time is to define command line
arguments to the jvm: <argLine>-Djava.library.path=....</argLine> AND use
forkMode once or pertest.
You could also configure environment vars like LD_LIBRARY_PATH but that's
not really portable.
Hope this helps,
