This one is perhaps dodgy.  You ahve this:

static char error_message[BUFSIZ];

Then you have this:
       sprintf(error_message, "dlopen (%s) not supported", file);

Where file isn't restricted in length I think...

So does that mean if you go:

CREATE FUNCTION blah AS '/home/chriskl/[90000 characters here].so' LANGUAGE
'C';

Sort of thing you could crash it?
