We've modified libtool.m4 to perfer shl_load on HP-UX *even* if dlopen
is available. The rationale for this is because dlopen() requires a
patch which all users might not have (we're running into this problem
now). Unfortunately, ltdl calls AC_LTDL_DLLIB which searches for
*every* possible loader

Why? Some C compilers define __STDC__ but don't define it to 1. How
about:
#ifdef __STDC__
