The current mechanism to load native libraries first attempts to find a library with the suffix .so. If that fails, it will try again with the suffix .dylib (the OSX library extension).
This poses a problem, since if the .so library failed for any reason other than the file not existing, the error message in )MORE will be: "filename.dylib: file not found". Since the dlopen facility does not provide a machine-readable way of interpreting hat the error was (missing file, or failure to initialise?) may I suggest we first identify which file exists and then perform a single dlopen on that file. I can do it and send patches if you want. Regards, Elias
