You appear to have ELF support. I'll try to use it for dynamic loading.

You don't have an ELF gcc. I will use dld if possible. If you are
using a version of DLD earlier than 3.2.6, or don't have it at all, you

+ # In addition, on some systems there is a problem with perl and NDBM

+ # systems. If someone can suggest a more robust test
