   Hi,   
      
   I just upgraded to the new expat 2.0.1 and to avoid massive recompiles   
   for all those applications that were linked against the old expat I   
   copied the expat file from /usr/lib to /usr/local/lib (which was a tip   
   from forums.gentoo.org).   
      
   My "strategy" now is that I want all the old applications to use expat   
   from /usr/local/lib but all new emerges only to link against expat from   
   /usr/lib (so I can get rid of the expat in /usr/local/lib in a few   
   months).   
      
   I tried to recompile abiword (just as an example) but found out (with   
   ldd) that it's now linked against the new expat /and/ the old expat.   
      
   So what I basically need is a way to exclude /usr/local/lib from LDPATH   
   for emerge.   
      
   How can I do that?
