I recently saw a description of the calls used by Linux (and other
Unix systems?) for dynamically loading and unloading shared libraries
at run time. These were: dlopen(), dlsym(), and dlclose(). Are these
(or the equivalent) supported by FreBSD? The man pages for my FreeBSD
2.1 system don't show them, nor do the O'Reilly 4.4BSD manuals.
