Sure, (and yes, I HAVE read the manual ;)) however that doesn't allow
you to portably-load your modules.

But thanks to Thomas Arcila who replied privately (oh, and Alan too),
I realized that one can use libltdl without compiling your modules
with libtool. Doing so, the problem should be solved, although I have
to test this on various platforms to check whether it works
everywhere.
