That's the one! funny how the loader on MacOS X doesn't screw this up.  So 
the symbol gets overwritten when the next .so is loaded... what about 
oz_init_module and oz_module_name?

Seems like OS X is cool with this...  there's dynamic link loaders and 
there's dynamic link loaders I guess - multiply defined symbols should 
generate some kind of warning or exception. 

Thanks for the pointer. 

Cheers,
