Exactly as it is, with the $ in the var, make sure it doesn't expand
when you set it, hence the single quotes.  $ISALIST is expanded by the
runtime linker to suit your machine.  See:

For a given machine with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set you could set it to your
own machine's arch but $ISALIST is a generic and flexible method.
$ISALIST is in the RPATH of many of the CSW libraries which means you
use the optimal binary for your platform.
