Is your kdesud installed suid, as it normally is?  Then this explains
it.  On Solaris only trusted dirs in LD_LIBRARY_PATH are honored for
secure processes.  setuid processes are an example of secure
processes.  Trusted dirs are only /usr/lib and /usr/lib/sparcv9.
That is, you can't make it work without rpath (which _is_ used completely
also for secure processes, at least the parts which begin with '/').


Ciao,
Michael.
