Oops. I stand corrected. We do indeed have a problem.
And now that you've pointed out the difference, I went back to read
the C++ Standard and was reminded that the name of a class (or struct)
cannot be `typedef'ed to a type other than the class (or struct) it
names. So `typedef struct foo foo' is valid, but `typedef bar foo' is
invalid unless bar is a synonym with `struct foo'.
So, we indeed have to go fix ltdl.h.
Thanks for your persistence :-)
