You mean to put export LD_LIBRARY_PATH= ... into .xinitrc ? Of course I
tried it but again
Well, the X server wrapper is setuid root. I hope you can appreciate the
grave security implications of letting users redefine the dynamic loader's
search path in the context of a process running with root privileges.
I didn't realize that, thanks.
I also tried to start X with xinit

xterm is setgid utmp, and therefore triggers the same (justified)
dynamic loader paranoia.

XFree86 unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable, so in X is blank. I also tried
to start X with xinit command but with same result. After return from X
variable is set right.
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is needed by java to point to directory
