Modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH only affects child processes (ld.so caches
the search path). In contrast, Windows evaluates the current PATH when
searching for DLLs (other than SxS assemblies). What's the immediate
goal here? For building an extension module with distutils you can use
library_dirs and runtime_library_dirs (UNIX, embed an rpath).
