This turned out to be the problem.
On my system, 'tcsh' is my default shell, but my .cshrc execs bash
instead when the shell is interactive (don't ask why). However for
non-interactive shells, the .cshrc is executed which does in fact
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to something bogus. I would have never guessed this
to be the problem, since I didn't know gdb spawned a new shell for the
process!
Thanks,
