Yeah, sorry.  When loading a library into a new dlmopen namespace, I
wonder how other libraries needed by that library are handled.  E.g.,
a BC-compiled .so will depend on libgcj_bc.so.  I suppose it would try
to load a new copy of libgcj_bc.so into the new namespace... but this
is incorrect for our situation.
