Done. http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commit;h=de7d32d064f2178c41dc98540ec5822a286107ae That said, I think dlpreopen is not useless per se: it allows `--disable-shared' builds to work, as well as builds on platforms without shared library support (IIRC Guile is built without shared libraries by default on HP-UX 11.11).
