I guess it'd be better to write something equivalent directly in c.
If anyone want to write it, just do.

Here's a minimal reproducer:

$ gcc -O2 -Wall $(getconf LFS_CFLAGS) -fPIC -shared libopen.c -o libopen.so
$ gcc -O2 -Wall testopen.c ./libopen.so -o testopen
$ ./testopen && echo ok
ok
$ eatmydata ./testopen
Aborted

If anyone else could test the resulting deb and confirm it works, wuold be great.

It works for me, thanks!
