// When loading and linking a dynamic library or bundle, dlopen
// searches in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, PWD, and
// DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH.
// In the Mach-O format, a dynamic library has an "install path."
// Clients linking against the library record this path, and the
// dynamic linker, dyld, uses it to locate the library.
// dyld searches DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH *before* the install path.
// dyld searches DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH only if it cannot
// find the library in the install path.
// Setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH can easily have unintended
// consequences.
