I wish you luck. I went into the makefiles. I found $MODLDFLAGS
and added -nonow everywhere in the modules; no go. It's the
dlloader (part of the Xserver, IIRC) that has the problem. Watch
for a patch on this. Have a look in these places
Xorg-6.9:
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/loader/dlloader.c
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/loader/dlloader.h
Xorg-7.0.0:
xorg-7.0.0/xserver/xorg-server-X11R7.0-1.0.1/hw/xfree86/loader/dlloader.h
xorg-7.0.0/xserver/xorg-server-X11R7.0-1.0.1/hw/xfree86/loader/dlloader.c

If you do manage dri, talk to us all.
