53 * Mandatory:
54 * RTLD_LAZY - resolve undefined symbols as code from the dynamic library

56 * RTLD_NOW - resolve all undefined symbols before dlopen returns, and fail
57 * if this cannot be done.
58 * Optionally:
59 * RTLD_GLOBAL - the external symbols defined in the library will be made
60 * available to subsequently loaded libraries.
