Sun Studio 12: C++ User's Guide

A.2.62.1 Interactions

If you use any shared libraries under the compiler installed area (the default location is /opt/SUNWspro/lib) and you also use –norunpath, then you should either use the –R option at link time or set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH at runtime to specify the location of the shared libraries. Doing so allows the runtime linker to find the shared libraries.
