Can't set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in .gnomerc

[Shixin Zeng]

A system-wide LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is equal to add the path to
/etc/ld.so.conf
And for system-wide environment variable, you could write it to /etc/environment

It seems not to answer your question why can't set in ~/.gnomerc. But
they are alternative ways to get equal function.
