Hello Dimitri

clearly this bug is not the right place to track a re-evaluation and
possible re-design of opencryptoki.

So far I understand this option it prevents some kind of attacks with
preloaded shard libs which provide some functions and thus in fact act
like a man-in-the-middle (e.g. think of overwriting exec or fork). So no
wonder why opencryptoki has problems with this as some tokens
'overwrite' some of the opencrptoki common code.

However, we had problems with this already in the past as you have to be
carefull with linking the objects together for the token shared lib. It
would be nice to have a better solution which does not collide with the
-Bsymbolic-functions linker option but as of now I have only some vague
ideas.

regards
Harald
