I used to have a primitive for getting the prefix in freehoo project.

I recommend a new primitive for this purpose.
Like ft-load, you can introduce ft-load-so which will load .so file
under ~/.freetalk/lib/ or $prefix/lib/freetalk/  

After galago patch, we will vote you for core team invitation.

We will also need your help in libjingle branch. Currently it doesn't
even have ft- scheme primitives. Can you take the responsibility of
porting all scheme extensions?
