The problem here is actually that ldd is looking for the library in /usr/lib first, and since it finds it there, it uses it (as does arora). Linking with a library in a different directory doesn't mean that the system search path for libraries will be ignored at runtime. You still need to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH or LD_PRELOAD (as suggested by another poster) to force your custom build of the library to be used when the program is executed. You can even build the program using the system library and use the custom built later by setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
