Hmm. The DSO code was considerably changed for the 0.9.7 version and changes
are not completed yet (additional security aspects must be considered with
respect to the search path).
The 0.9.6a is only intended to fix bugs and especially should not break
existing functionality, therefore you'll have to wait for 0.9.7 for the
improved DSO handling.
