Not sure if this helps or not, but on some systems LD_LIBRARY_PATH can't be set by the same process that uses it. So you need it set by the process that starts the process that uses. So for instance, you need to make sure it's set in your shell environment and that it gets exported to the commands you run (sometimes "su" can remove ENV vars). And then you'll need a "PassEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH" and a "PerlPassEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH". But you can't do a "SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH" in your httpd.conf.
Not sure if that will help or not though since it's been a while since I've touched AIX.
