Is this a documentation error then? (from
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/setup-env.html)
The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is used by the Cygwin function
dlopen () as a list of directories to search for .dll files to
load. This
environment variable is converted from Windows format to UNIX
format when a
Cygwin process first starts. Most Cygwin applications do not make
use of
the dlopen () call and do not need this variable.
