patch: correct behaviour of dlls ( init & fork )


Dear all,

I have made some work to let dlls have almost the same behavior as so on UNIX:

	- implementation of dlopen,dlclose,dlsym,dlerror
	- correct init when loaded + call of global contructors
	- call of global destructors when detached
	- dlls are accessible and correctly initialized in forked process
	- handles got through dlopen or dlsym in parent are accessible in child
	- use of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in dlopen search

I think it can help people who need an intensive use of dll ( plugins ... )

My patch is 59082 bytes, so I will not send it to the list.
Anyway, if you are interested, send me a mail and I will send you the patch
personnaly ...

Regards.

P.S: I will send the patch to Geoffrey Noer
