Surely You're Joking, Mr. Loewis!
As it stands, Linux/gcc3 is the only platform that does not do what
we want. Are you sure it is helpful to tell people to "go away"?
Questions:
- Is the situation different if python is compiled and linked with a C++
compiler (--with-cxx)?
- More generally: What are the issues when using dlopen in any C++
program.
