Bootstrap should allow overriding a dynamic library #148150

Hi.

I tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use a different libgccjit, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

I expected that bootstrap would pick the libgccjit.so file from LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Instead, bootstrap kept its version from build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage2/lib.

Meta

I tried on commit 8aab621.

Some more details.

I expect that some people would want to do something similar with LLVM.
What do people do to test a different LLVM version when hacking on rustc? Does it work by just setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

Thanks.
