We don't use "dlopen()" directly, we use the GLib wrapper, which
supports HP-UX.

The problem is that we currently determine, on UNIX systems, whether
dynamic linking is supported by checking whether we have a "dlfcn.h"
header file, rather than by checking whether "g_module_supported()" in
GLib returns TRUE or FALSE.
