--- RTLD_NEXT madness
--- On some host (e.g. SuSe Linux 7.2) RTLD_NEXT is not visible
--- without setting _GNU_SOURCE. Since we don't want to set this
--- flag, here's a different solution: You can use the Haskell
--- function 'haveRtldNext' to check wether the flag is available
--- to you. Ideally, this will be optimized by the compiler so
--- that it should be as efficient as an #ifdef.
--- If you fail to test the flag and use it although it is
--- undefined, 'packOneModuleFlag' will bomb.
