Hi,

I got an off-list report from a user about test failures in 2.2.6b, that
turned out to be either because he'd configured with --disable-shared or
libtool had incorrectly guessed that his system did not support shared
libraries. (lots of lag in the exchange).


I am not spectacularly happy with all of these, suggestions welcome.

2&  4: A-OK :) Please push.

Will do tomorrow, thanks.

1: There might be a better way.  I'm thinking...

I'm not sure what testing that modules cannot be unloaded gets you when you don't have shared libraries.

3: eww!

It's either skip the test entirely or some crap like this, you can't load a static archive "RTLD_LOCAL", then load a different static archive with the same symbols later "RTLD_GLOBAL", and expect things to work. I debated what to do, and decided to do the crap thing, since it's possible some parts of the test are useful.

Peter
