Sure, that's probably right.  However it's tough to tell.  You could
look for "\.so(\.|$)" or something.  But that's encoding lots of
details.

I think that uses of dlopenext are already oblivious to `stat' calls,
because they sanction looking for .la files before e.g. .so files, so
it's not a problem to just do what the doc says: bare path first, then
grovel extensions.

MHO :)

Cheers,

Andy
