In a non relocated installation, this really isn't a problem though
right? As long as the library remains in the path that the linker
initially was told it'd be at, this is a non issue, and one would expect
in a non SHLIB_PATH situation, that would be the case,

In a case where it is relocated, envvar just needs to be updated right?
