I agree. And that's what your patch does, right? Would you like to
submit it to the wine-patches list? I think the case for it is strong,
especially since (1) you found that it fixes a behavior change in
WINEDLLPATH from November 2006 --- arguably a regression; and (2) it
works in the same way that LD_LIBRARY_PATH works, which is what Linux
programmers would expect.
Actually the current way is precisely what LD_LIBRARY_PATH does for
relocatable installs. The loader first looks in the rpath $ORIGIN path,
then in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then in system directories. Wine does exactly
the same thing.
I did a quickie review of 'rpath'. It isn't standard, though, is it? I'm
not using it with my APP.exe.so. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is searched first on my
system.
Anyway, is the next step that I (or Hin-Tak) submit a patch and you
bless it or not?

PS: LD_LIBRARY_PATH behavior with my .exe.so shows that LD_LIBRARY_PATH
can jump in front of even /lib...
