Comment (by eighthave):

 One thought that recently struck me is that loading shared libraries works
 easily in Java space.  The LD_LIBRARY_PATH stuff is automatically handled
 when loading using `System.load()`, or you can load using the full path
 using `System.loadLibrary()`.  But that means running all bits that need
 that shared library via Android/Java methods, e.g. not as daemons.  IMHO
 that's the right direction for the future anyway.
