perhaps you should try

Makefile:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/src/foo/lib
all: whatever
	cd /usr/src/bar; ./configure


the export is important, it tells the make to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH also 
defined in its child processes, for example in configure, otherwise it 
has it only defined for itself.
and i think it is better to define all that stuff at the beginning of 
the Makefile, and not in the all: area...

here you run in the same shell, and not in a child process of it.
