I forgot to make this change earlier when I was just getting libltdl to work
on Linux. From info libtool, all this change does is look for a variety of
suffixes if it cannot find the exact file name you specify. I just tested
that lt_dlopenext works exactly like lt_dlopen on Linux where the shared
object suffix is .so. Apparently, the shared object suffix is also .so for
OSF1, so I believe this change won't affect the OSF1 testing that Joao is
doing. What we need is additional tests of lt_dlopenex on platforms with
different suffixes for shared objects.
Does anybody have access to a HPUX machine where apparently the suffixes are
.sl rather than .so? That (assuming you configure --enable-dyndrivers)
would be a definitive test of lt_dlopenext (and of course lots of other
stuff where HPUX apparently does things in their own unique way).
