I rather see this as a bug in early releases of MacOS X, up-to-date
version (AFAIK at least 10.4 and up) don't make such a strict distinction
any more. Notably, "man dlopen" (on MacOS 10.6) says in it's header:
" dlopen -- load and link a dynamic library or bundle"
so it's equally suitable for both shared libraries and bundles (loadable
modules).
Note that I'm not a Mac expert, I'm just trying to cope with it and what
Jakob is writing is totally re-confusing me in an area that I thought I
finally had managed to understand. :-(

Stefan
