Let's turn this around: what do you *want* the dlclose() invocation to do for you? Its documented behavior is to close and invalidate the shared library mapping if it is currently unused. Since you are caching and returning a pointer to a function in the library, this cannot possibly be what you want. Why is the line there if we all agree it is a no-op? Occam's razor demands that you take it out.
