We had some trouble that some systems were picking out the installed
octave libraries rather than the ones in the build tree, even with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The LD_PRELOAD was an attempt to get around it, and at
the time I thought that those that didn't support LD_PRELOAD (eg
windows) would at least ignore. If child process doesn't need the
LD_PRELOAD library, I see no reason to fail. Trust Sun to come up with a
new way to fail. Is there any other way around this?
