If the difference is only in the NEEDED shared libraries, than
"nm" doesn't differ. "ldd" or "objdump" would presumably.

Doesn't look terribly useful:
$ createlang -e -U pgsql pltcl qwert
SELECT oid FROM pg_language WHERE lanname = 'pltcl';
SELECT oid FROM pg_proc WHERE proname = 'pltcl_call_handler' AND prorettype = 
(S
ELECT oid FROM pg_type WHERE typname = 'language_handler') AND pronargs = 0;
SET autocommit TO 'on';CREATE FUNCTION "pltcl_call_handler" () RETURNS 
LANGUAGE_
HANDLER AS '$libdir/pltcl' LANGUAGE C;
ERROR:  Load of file /usr/pkg/lib/postgresql/pltcl.so failed: dlopen 
(/usr/pkg/l
ib/postgresql/pltcl.so) failed
createlang: language installation failed
