ECL used to apply the function TRUENAME on the input to that
previously cited function. I have removed this in CVS, so that dlopen
resolves the filename. This may or may not be good, because it no
longer allows ECL to know which libraries it has really loaded: if you
load the same library with two different, but compatible namestrings,
then ECL will really be confused.
