That's kinda the point of these discussions, to answer the question:
what is in those libraries we need? Which symbol did we want? Rather
than trying to detect versions, is there some change in the library
(added or removed symbol) that we can base our decision on?
Does that library (ld) actually provide dlopen() or something else?
Thanks for the info.
