I fixed that for 10.0, and I've not heard any complaints about it.
Does OS X's dynlib have similar problems to dlopen systems where the following situation results in an unstable apache processes? 1. mod_perl is loaded. 2. mod_perl loads other shared libraries containing perl extensions, which then get symbols resolved to the mod_perl library, 3. mod_perl gets unloaded 4. mod_perl reloaded (at a different location) and then the libraries containing the perl extentions have invalid pointers? I think that is the sequence of events desribed in <URL:http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2000-01/ msg00709.html> -- "Sometimes people need to play a little while before they go to the office."
