Responding to myself, after a quick consult with the Googlemonster:
Seems you need to call a utility called slibclean, to remove the memory 
references to the shared object.

And, sometimes, that still doesn’t work - so you have to rm it anyway. :/

Anyhoo - it seems to me that the real problem is that we’re deleting the newly 
generated .so, rather than the *target* into which we’re trying to copy (which 
is what would be what has the in-memory references).

Best,
Victor
