I tried searching the Internet for such issues, but couldn't find
any. What do you recall as being the loader problem? The "extern"
part? Or use of a null string for termination?
OK, found it. "How to Write Shared Libraries" by Ulrich Drepper,
version 4.0, section 2.4.3 "Arrays of Data Pointers". See also the
programs in Appendix B.
I think the problem is (relatively) high constant ldso overhead for a
rarely-used facility. However, i'm not sure if those concerns are
relevant in this context. If not, sorry for the noise!
