The open_path stops if a relative path in search path contains a
component that is a non directory (for instance, if the component
is an existing file).
For instance:
$ cat > lib.c <<EOF
> void foo (void) {}
> EOF
$ gcc -shared -fPIC -o lib.so lib.c
$ cat > main.c <<EOF
extern void foo ();
int main () { foo (); return 0; }
EOF
$ gcc -o main main.c lib.so
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./main
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=non-existing/path:. ./main
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(pwd)/main:. ./main
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./main:. ./main
./main: error while loading shared libraries: lib.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The invalid './main' should be ignored as a non-existent one,
instead as a valid but non accessible file.
Absolute paths do not trigger this issue because their status are
initialized as 'unknown' and open_path check if this is a directory.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
