This is a long standing collision and I don't think you'll be able to
get it to work as you want.  You might want to discuss with libtool list.

Short answer is no.  You're best scenario might be to have differing
/home paths and symlink the common files in one of them.  Otherwise
you're likely to end up with PATH that is overlapping and that doesn't work.
