  34 <PRE>     DL_LAZY shouldn't be needed, and in fact goes contrary to what I want
  35 (which is to resolve all symbols on load and fail if some are missing).
  36 Did you read the manual page correctly?  As far as the underscores, I'll
  37 see about putting in a check for those in the configure script.

  44 </I>&gt;<i>Hello Peeps
  45 </I>&gt;<i>
  46 </I>&gt;<i>On OpenBSD the flags to dlopen should be DL_LAZY, which is for future
  47 </I>&gt;<i>compatibility (according to its manpage), also, it needs an underscore
  48 </I>&gt;<i>prefixed onto any symbol you try and get from the modules (i believe
  49 </I>&gt;<i>this is due to the a.out binary format, and it isn't handled in BSD's
  50 </I>&gt;<i>dl* routines).
  51 </I>&gt;<i>I just tried a compile on OpenBSD 3.0, and ircservices doesn't handle
  52 </I>&gt;<i>either of these quirks, it should be a relatively simple
  53 </I>&gt;<i>makefile/configure change to get ircservices to account for them.
  54 </I>&gt;<i>
