overlay

Hi,

I'm looking for a shared library that is to be loaded using LD_PRELOAD that would modify the view of the filesystem to the client program.

Ideally, I'd like to choose the filesystem root (or use / as root) and to overlay the filesystem by renaming filenames.

For example, I might want to tell my program to look for /usr/lib/* in /usr/lib32/* instead.

Do you know of such a program ?

Thanks.
