0001928: Problem setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH with resin 3.1.2
Under resin 3.0.21 I set certain environment variable in my start script before starting resin (things to setup my oracle client like PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc...)

Now under 3.1.2... I am trying to set these same environment variable in the start script before starting resin...
---This works fine if I start resin in the foreground
---This fails if I start resin in the background... all environment variable settings are being passed to the child process and set correctly ```except``` LD_LIBRARY_PATH. my child process's LD_LIBRARY_PATH always ends up being just the Java and resin paths.
I have tracked it down in resin code to the
com.caucho.boot.ResinWatchdog class... what seems to be happening is
---I set the ld_library_path in the shell script which launches resin
---at lines 365 -to- 367, launchManager method... the ld_library_path is
explicitly overwritten and set to the value resin want
---at lines 713 -to- 728, createProcess method... the ld_library_path is
appended to, but this occurs after the launchManager method... so the
values I need in there are already gone

I am sure the issue is far more complicated then I realize, but,
everything works for me if...
---alter the launchManager method to append to the ld_library_path
instead of overwriting it
---and alter the createProcess method to not do anything with the
ld_library_path

I also tried to set my ld_library_path by way of setting the
java.library.path as a <jvm-arg> in the resin.conf... this does not work
either.

There are no notes attached to this issue.
