[geeks] Solaris linking issue

I have a program that depends on ICU, a unicode library. Solaris
comes with an older version (that is too old) of this library at /usr/
lib. Before realizing that (and it is too old anyway), I installed
the latest released version in /usr/local/.
Anyway, then I try to run my program, it gripes about not finding the
symbol ucol_close_4_0. That symbol is found in /usr/local/lib/
libicui18n.so, but not in /usr/lib.
So, I suspect that the run time linker is picking the older /usr/
lib. How do I force it to correct this without removing the old one
(which I suspect is required elsewhere) or permanently changing crle
since I only want this one program to use the new library?
