This function is not exportable, even on request.
+FAQ
+
+ Why not just use dlopen?
+
+ Calling dlopen on a library name and then dlclose immediately can
+ tell you if you have the exact name of a library available on a
+ system. It does have a number of drawbacks as well.
+
+ No absolute or relative path
+
+ It only tells you that the library is somewhere on the system, not
+ having the absolute or relative path makes it harder to generate
+ useful diagnostics.
+
+ POSIX only
+
+ This doesn't work on non-POSIX systems like Microsoft Windows. If
+ you are using a POSIX emulation layer on Windows that provides
+ dlopen, like Cygwin, there are a number of gotchas there as well.
+ Having a layer written in Perl handles this means that developers
+ on Unix can develop FFI that will more likely work on these
+ platforms without special casing them.
+
+ inconsistent implementations
+
+ Even on POSIX systems you have inconsistent implementations.
+ OpenBSD for example don't usually include symlinks for .so files
+ meaning you need to know the exact .so version.
+
+ non-system directories
+
+ By default dlopen only works for libraries in the system paths.
+ Most platforms have a way of configuring the search for different
+ non-system paths, but none of them are portable, and are usually
+ discouraged anyway. Alien and friends need to do searches for
+ dynamic libraries in non-system directories for share installs.
+
+ My 64-bit Perl is misconfigured and has 32-bit libraries in its search
+ path. Is that a bug in FFI::CheckLib?
+
+ Nope.
+
+ The way FFI::CheckLib is implemented it won't work on AIX, HP-UX,
+ OpenVMS or Plan 9.
+
+ I know for a fact that it doesn't work on AIX as currently
+ implemented because I used to develop on AIX in the early 2000s, and
+ I am aware of some of the technical challenges. There are probably
+ other systems that it won't work on. I would love to add support for
+ these platforms. Realistically these platforms have a tiny market
+ share, and absent patches from users or the companies that own these
+ operating systems (patches welcome), or hardware / CPU time
+ donations, these platforms are unsupportable anyway.
