So, this issue is still un-resolved. Contrary to what
cgf say, dlopen doesn't care about LD_LIBRARY_PATH
while opening dependent DLLs of its argument. It opens
the DLL if the depedent DLLs are found in the $PATH.
I think you meant if I do dlopen("c.dll",..) it will
try to find it in LD_LIBRARY_PATH (plus /usr/lib from
1.5.17). what happens in this case:
dlopen("/a/b/c.dll",...) and c.dll depends on
/a/b/d.dll. This dlopen of c.dll fails if /a/b is not
in PATH, although it is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I don't
think this is linux behaviour.
