One case to keep on the radar: There can be configuration mechanisms

/usr/lib/apr-util-1/apr_foo-1.so?
Do the various loaders permit an argument resembling
"apr-util-1/bar.so" to consult the non-envvar loader configuration?
The apr-util's apu-prefix=/foo becomes /foo/lib/apr-util-1/ so this is
and
isn't addressed, and really can't be. Unless dlopen supports finding
these
'default' platform directories, we are at a loss.
In a non relocated installation, this really isn't a problem though
right? As long as the library remains in the path that the linker
initially was told it'd be at, this is a non issue, and one would expect
in a non SHLIB_PATH situation, that would be the case,
In a case where it is relocated, envvar just needs to be updated right?
