The problem is that most dynamic linkers remove LD_LIBRAY_PATH when
running a setuid program (like sudo) so by the time sudo runs it
is not even in the environment.

If you cannot change the global list of allowed shared library
locations you can always make a script that just sets the variable
appropriately and then executes the program that needs it.
