Sorry for the several hours delay in checking the file in. During my
initial code perusal, I persuaded myself that RTLD_GLOBAL had a
different value under SuSE, and had to go back and check. It helped that
you identified and documented the correct location for the dlfcn.h file,
(which, of course, differs in Cygwin).
