IMHO, no. The behavior AIUI is dynamic for applications built +b +s.
But if my understanding of the default behavior is wrong, I agree with
your suggestion.
It doesn't appear that the +s flag alone lets explicit calls to
shl_load search SHLIB_PATH to find libraries.
typescript-like testcase at http://misers.org/apache/shl_load.txt
(similiar results for ia64 in same dir)
It might also be wise to (instead?) test for SHL after DLFCN as SHL
is deprecated (swapping of two stanzas in srclib/apr/configure.in):
shl_load(3x)
Future HP-UX environments may not support these routines and flags or
may only support a subset of them. Instead, they will use the SVR4
dynamic loading API. Users are encouraged to migrate to the dl*
family of dynamic linking routines.
