I found a few:
http://cvs.opendarwin.org//cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/Libcompat/
cvs -d :pserver:email@hidden:/cvs/od login
cvs -z3 -d :pserver:email@hidden:/cvs/od \
co -d dlcompat proj/dlcompat
and
ftp://us.osxgnu.org/pub/osxgnu/Libraries/dlcompat-10505X.pkg.sit
trt
Thanks, this seems to be what I want right here. Apple's
documentation is terrible on this point.
But I still have a question: how do I install libdlcompat? Is this
a fink module?

Thanks.
Note that MacOS X differentiates between shared libraries (.dylib)
and loadable modules ("bundles" with any extension). You link
against a .dylib, but you cannot use dlopen() with a dynamic
library. If you're using dlopen(), then you need to use "-bundle"
when creating the shared object. The most succinct description is
probably the one provided by fink:
<http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/porting/shared.php>
Once you modify your build tools to use the proper compiler flags,
then you'll be able to load the modules pretty easily. Panther
includes dlopen() automatically. On earlier systems you'll need to
install libdlcompat.
Hope this helps,
Chris
