The OpenBSD case: Once a /usr/local/lib exists, /etc/rc (i.e. startup) 
will just add it in to be searched [1].  Simple, but presumably works 
adequately for their needs, avoids having to tell new users a mouthful 
something like "add a /usr/local/lib to shlib_dirs in your 
/etc/rc.conf.local to use the shared libraries installed by packages/ports"
