Then I presume whoever wrote those bindings didn't follow the rules, and
you'll have to contact them to find out how to get it to work properly.
(Unfortunately there's a decent chance they made it work on Linux and don't
know about other platforms, and their only suggestion will be the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH one which will not work properly on OS X, as you found.)
