This is a FreeBSD specific workaround that links to a bug (or different 
behaviour than Linux).  See PR bin/140143 (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-
pr.cgi?pr=bin/140143) for the details.  I'm not familiar with the standards 
governing dlopen but I suspect this is a bug with FreeBSD's rtld?

P.S. I've got an improved test program (does all tests in a single run)
P.P.S. I've confirmed that the test program runs without fail on openSUSE 10.2
