The guideline expressed in Palm's shared library sample is that a library
should return an error from its Close function if it still has active
clients. I think this is preferable to only unloading libraries that you
loaded. Although I can't think of a scenario right now, it concerns me
that you could still be unloading a library that someone else is still using.
I'm wondering if it is possible for a library to unload itself. In other
words, when a user calls Close (or, better yet, a library-defined Terminate
function), the library would check its usage count and call SysLibUnload?
