By default we don't. Which is very annoying for testing plugins, as you have 
to restart all the time.

But looking at the KLibLoader source and svn log's output there are actually 
provisions to force a dlclose:

Internal cleanups. Proper ref-counting when loading/unloading the same library
multiple times. Make sure, you don't create KLibrary objects yourself. Instead
go through KLibLoader (this was there from the beginning, but now it's really
required).

It now defaults to _not_ dlclose() libraries. Only those which export the 
symbol __kde_do_unload. (__kde_do_not_unload is still recognized, as are the 
env. vars KDE_NOUNLOAD (disabling dlclose() alltogether) and KDE_DOUNLOAD 
(enabling dlclose() for _all_ libs). This means, that currently no libraries 
are dlcose'ed by default.

I wish I knew about the $KDE_DOUNLOAD trick back when I worked on Kopete :/
