It claims to be qute portable, also when on a platform that does not
support dynamic linking, this is "forged" by using static linking
instead.
On the info page it says:
libltdl supports currently the following dynamic linking mechanisms:
* `dlopen' (Solaris, Linux and various BSD flavors)
* `shl_load' (HP-UX)
* `LoadLibrary' (Win16 and Win32)
* `load_add_on' (BeOS)
* GNU DLD (emulates dynamic linking for static libraries)
* libtool's dlpreopen (see *note Dlpreopening::)
