Full Discussion: Embedding Runtime Search Path into Library on AIX
Operating Systems AIX Embedding Runtime Search Path into Library on AIX Post 302921231 by MadeInGermany on Thursday 16th of October 2014 12:57:20 AM

Anyway -R or LD_RUN_PATH set a library search path at compile time that becomes hard-coded in the binary. It cannot evaluate a MYPATH at runtime.
I think you need to create a start wrapper at installation time that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH - typically a shell wrapper that prepends the custom location to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. At the end the wrapper calls the binary, passing the command line arguments.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
installdir=/usr/local # to be patched
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$installdir/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec $installdir/bin/binary "$@"
