I don't know which architecture you are working on, but I suspect you
have been lucky.

Yep, that's about as far as I got before realizing that there were
many more hurdles to overcome, particularly the toolchain issues I
mentioned before.

I'm not really sure what you mean here. You should be resolving any
symbols in the loaded library against the symbol table in the
main executable. However, for this to happpen, the main executable
must have been linked against the load library to build its symbol
table.
