I think your example shold work, but it's something that's totally
handled by libltdl. Are you using the latest libltdl?
I have now update to latest
libtool --version
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 2.2.6b
and the README says that libltdl should be a part of it; however, I
just made an install of the libtools package. I also re-unpacked
guile-1.8.7, and './configure && make && make install'.
There is no change: .dylib fails; .so works.
Note also that libltdl's error messages often aren't the most
appropriate, due to another bug:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.libtool.general/10621
This (often) makes all failures come out as "file not found".
Since it works if I change to .so, it seems to only be that file name
problem.
So try using a newer libltdl, and if that fails, bug-libt...@gnu.org
is
probably the place to go.
Ah - list chasing. :-)
