That code in Apache is (intentionally) disabled on OS X; it's there to
workaround the lack of unloading functionality in Rhapsody. Multiply
defined symbols is *supposed* to be an error condition. If you need
private symbol name scope for modules, there exists dyld API for that;
Apache does not use it. See /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h.
