I'm hoping this might help address issues like #923.
Using Nix (on darwin) I often hit issues (particularly with libraries like vips that require ffi) where glib etc can't be found. By setting up one of the standard paths like LD_LIBRARY path or DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH I should be able to move past this, however FFI only looks i a few standard places for libraries. This patch should provide an easy way past this.
