I do have OpenOffice, and I do have the Dl_info files you described. Does this mean that I can trash /usr/local/include/dlfcn.h and /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib without causing problems in OpenOffice?

No, all of these problems with Dl_info are from people who have installed
openoffice. Openoffice's installer ships, or at least used to ship,
/usr/local/include/dlfcn.h and /usr/local/lib/libdl.dylib. Problem being
that the version of dlcompat that they are shipping is old/different, and
does not include support for dladdr, thus when something wants to use
dladdr, it finds the function available in libSystem in it's configure
script, then when the actual code #includes <dlfcn.h> it gets
/usr/local/include/dlfcn.h, rather than /usr/include/dlfcn.h where dladdr
and Dl_info are defined.
It is the fault of openoffice for shipping a header that they do not even
need to ship. Application installers really should not install headers.
