It seems like the document is incorrect and rpath takes preference: 
Using chrpath, I've verified that python-gconf has RPATH=/usr/lib. 
strace shows the order (for ldd) is /usr/lib/tls/x86_64, /usr/lib/tls, 
/usr/lib/x86_64, /usr/lib.
BTW: Libraries in sugar-jhbuild seem to set rpath, too - at least 
libevince.so does have RPATH=/home/sugar/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib64.
