>Description:
The dlopen() manual page mentions that the "mode" argument should always be 
DL_LAZY.  However, this fails to link to symbols in files which have themselves 
been earlier dlopened.  Magic undocumented mode incantation RTLD_GLOBAL fixes 
this.
>How-To-Repeat:
rtfm
>Fix:
document all flags
