Note that you guys seems not know what dlopen() is. POSIX and SUS says that dlclose() does not need to unmap libraries. So, it's debian specific wishlist. I fixed this report because it's convenient for the upgrade from woody to sarge, but it's not mandatory behavior. So, another word, it's also libapache-mod-php4 bug during upgrade. Regards, -- gotom
