Suggestion:
In AIX's implementation of LLU (Live Library Update), the caller of a Virtual 
API (VAPI) interface instead calls VAPI glue and the implementation for a VAPI 
function is entered from the VAPI glue. If a VAPI is not already active on the 
thread, the VAPI calls the implementation of the VAPI function with the link 
register (LR) value set to a return address in the VAPI glue. In this case, the 
LR (return address) value on entry to the VAPI glue is saved in the VAPI 
control block.
