Hmm, a quick check revealed that this started happening with r1823787,
where I stopped pre-loading libpthread.so into httpd. To the best of
my knowledge dlopen() now works without this hack on OpenBSD.

However, the httpd modules in my build *are* linked to libpthread.so
for some reason, even though APR is compiled without threads:

$ ldd modules/svn-trunk/{mod_authz_svn,mod_dav_svn,mod_dontdothat}.so | grep 
pthread 
        00001afb97159000 00001afb97362000 rlib 0    10   0      
/usr/lib/libpthread.so.25.1
        00001afb2c499000 00001afb2c6a2000 rlib 0    10   0      
/usr/lib/libpthread.so.25.1
        00001afb81409000 00001afb81612000 rlib 0    3   0      
/usr/lib/libpthread.so.25.1

So this could just be a local problem in my build.
I'll investigate this later, and revert r1823787 for now.

  This is no longer needed.
