/* some flags are missing on some systems, so we provide
 * harmless defaults.
 *
 * Mandatory:
 * BIND_IMMEDIATE  - Resolve symbol references when the library is loaded.
 * BIND_DEFERRED   - Delay code symbol resolution until actual reference.
 *
 * Optionally:
 * BIND_FIRST	   - Place the library at the head of the symbol search
 * 		     order.
 * BIND_NONFATAL   - The default BIND_IMMEDIATE behavior is to treat all
 * 		     unsatisfied symbols as fatal.  This flag allows
 * 		     binding of unsatisfied code symbols to be deferred
 * 		     until use.
 *		     [Perl: For certain libraries, like DCE, deferred
 *		     binding often causes run time problems. Adding
 *		     BIND_NONFATAL to BIND_IMMEDIATE still allows
 *		     unresolved references in situations like this.]
 * BIND_NOSTART	   - Do not call the initializer for the shared library
 *		     when the library is loaded, nor on a future call to
 *		     shl_unload().
 * BIND_VERBOSE	   - Print verbose messages concerning possible
 *		     unsatisfied symbols.
 *
 * hp9000s700/hp9000s800:
 * BIND_RESTRICTED - Restrict symbols visible by the library to those
 *		     present at library load time.
 * DYNAMIC_PATH	   - Allow the loader to dynamically search for the
 *		     library specified by the path argument.
