Does Apple Darwin allow the install of the older libarys to overwrite

older libraries, that the os itself won't see and won't then get it's
feet tangled up with.

"It" doesn't put the libraries anywhere. Where the libraries are put depends on where you, or the install target of the program you are compiling, puts them. If you overwrite system libraries with older versions, you will probably break the system. There is no problem with putting the libraries elsewhere and linking against them.
