It could well have something to do with the libtool "ltdl" library. We
use the ltdl library as a portable form of dlopen() (and friends). On
your system, it's probably acting as a front-end for the dl- functions.
I don't know if there's incompatible state in there that it's setting up
such that it will be hard/difficult for other parts of the application to
use dl- functions...?
