Hello,
I have been working on implementing extension guessing consistently in parrot.
These changes make parrot much more usable, robust, flexible, and maintainable.
Usable:
the current parrot implementation requires the extension to be specified. First

It also makes Mandarin and other ideographic languages impossible to read. As
evidence I admit that, though I am very smart, *I* can't read them.

Hello,
I am working on src/dynext.c and I ran across this in get_path.
if (lib == NULL) {
*handle = Parrot_dlopen((char *)NULL);
if (*handle) {
return string_from_const_cstring(interp, "", 0);
}
err = Parrot_dlerror();
