I must not be thinking clearly since it's very late but I was under
the impression that to resolve symbols, the dynamic linker runs
before the program entry point is reached.
What circumstances might cause libraries to be loaded after the
program entry point, apart from manually invoking dlopen? Is Safari
manually loading the RawCamera, HelpData or Shortcut frameworks, for
example?
It may be Safari, it may be some System frameworks that do it lazily.
There is a lot of reason why a library will be load at runtime.
Loading a plugin or a component that require it is one. Internet
plugins are not loaded before the browser entry point and they may
have reference on not yet loaded libraries.
