The global initialization file lists of preloaded libraries must contain only absolute paths on AIX.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The library preload list environment variable contains a list of libraries for the dynamic linker to load before loading the libraries required by the binary. If this list contains paths to libraries relative to the current working directory, unintended libraries may be preloaded.
