I think a comment like this would be ideal:
Search order:
"library.so" -> load "library.so", then "library.a"
"library" -> load "library.so", then "library.a" ?
"library.a" -> only load "library.a" ?
(If that's correct.) I prefer that over a very verbose version. + References to 
Spec and J9 of course.
