Sorry, I haven't had time to investigate this.

The problem is that I don't see any connection between your proposed 
change and the failed test.  I'm not disputing that your change makes a 
problematic symptom go away.  But I haven't been able to invest enough 
time to really understand why that might be so.

The whole issue of dynamically loaded DLLS/shared libraries has been a 
festering sore for at least 20 years now.  It's undefined by the 
standard and the committee has not seen fit to address it. Sorry it just 
takes time to get this right.
