OpenOffice Basic allows to declare functions and subroutines implemented in
dynamic link libraries.
Calling such a function on Linux results in ERRCODE_BASIC_NOT_IMPLEMENTED.
In fact this functionality is only implemented for IA32 Windows which is
approaching obsolescence.
Implementation for other operating systems requires a knowledge of the ABI of
the individual machine.
Library libffi (https://sourceware.org/libffi/) can be used for this purpose.
Hence I suggest to reimplement class SbiDllMgr using this library.
