The problem seems to be that Dynlink simply doesn't work when called
from code in a shared library (.so file).

The first problem is that Dynlink.init () causes a nasty crash - it
tries to open ("") and fails. This seems to be indicative of something
Very Bad happening in Dynlink library.

If I comment out the call to Dynlink.init (), then things just don't
work either.

Here is the smallest example I could make to demonstrate the failure:

*Please!* someone download this &amp; tell me how to fix it. I spent much
of yesterday night trying to workaround the problems.

Rich.
