I have a shared library, libfoo.so, that references another .so which isn't 
linked but instead loaded at runtime with 
myso=dlopen("/usr/local/lib/libbar.so", RTLD_NOW); when I try to load it with 
ctypes, the call hangs and I have to ctl-c.

(build)[dev]$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin
(build)[dev]$ python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import ctypes
>>> ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary ('/usr/local/lib/libfoo.so')   <--- This call hangs 
>>> and have to ctl-C
^CTraceback (most recent call last):

My first thought was that It couldn't find libbar.so, but if I remove that 
file, python seg faults: /usr/local/lib/libbar.so: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directorySegmentation fault (core dumped), so it appears 
that it finds the dlopen() file but freezes waiting for ???

This is on ubuntu 14.4 server. C code is compiled with -std=gnu11 -Wall -Werror 
-m64 -march=x86-64 -mavx -g -fPIC

I also get the same reaction on python3.4

Thanks in advance
