I'm not especially familiar with libtool, but IME, LD_RUN_PATH is
ignored if any run-time search directories are given on the command
line.  So if the command that links your binary has any -Wl,-R,
options (or whatever they look like on your platform), that may be the
problem.

At least with GNU binutils: objdump -p | grep RPATH
