To my knowledge. Solaris does not have an equivalent to Linux's system
wide default search path.
Applications can specify their own run path using -R on the link line.
which frees them from users needing to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. And as you
noticed, LD_LIBRARY_PATH can be used in the environment for users, but
properly built applications that specify -R won't need that.
