Ah, okay.  Then find_module shouldn't call tryall_dlopen at that juncture,
it should lt_dlloader_find ("lt_preopen").  I have no objection to a
tryone_dlopen function if you want to abstract it better than that.

But first, we need to see whether this helps in the first place...

Cheers,
        Gary.
