It doesn't ensure GPL-compliance, AFAICT, so in its current form it
cannot be accepted, sorry. And I'm not sure I understand how can one
technically enforce GPL compliance in FFI-style loading of arbitrary
shared libraries. The only idea that comes to mind is allow-list of
known libraries, the way we do in sqlite.c, but I'm not sure that
method is scalable to the basically infinite world of arbitrary
libraries.
