The reason you need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH on linux is because in most cases linux does not ship with OpenMotif and SWT has some problems with Lesstif. Note this is not required on any other platform including other unix platforms and windows. The GTK driver also requires the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for now on linux because the code that brings up the splash screen is written in motif but this will change one day.
