I think it's a bug. libfakechroot presents a version of dlopen() on
the assumption that the libc it's fronting has dlopen(). So, anyone
probing for dlopen() finds it in libfakechroot. However, when that
dlopen() is called you get a (very confusing) link error. This is a
bug because if the underlying C library does not have dlopen() then
libfakechroot should either not export it or should forward calls to
the right library (which was libdl.so, I think.)
Andrew.
