You might be better putting _neither_ directory in your ld.so.conf, and
using LD_LIBRARY_PATH and friends to add to the list that ld will use on
a program-by-program (or run-by-run) basis.  You could, eg, use a couple
of shell scripts to automate this process (ie, set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and
friends, and then execute the rest of the command line).
