The command-line program 'java' already sets its LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so
it shouldn't be necessary when calling from Java.
Okay, so this is just a problem if I want to run Prolog and access
Java from inside there. Is it acceptable to tell people to set their
LD_LIBRARY_PATH if they want to use jpl in this direction? That's
essentially what upstream tells you to do (except they describe the
Windows case):
