No, this has nothing to do with RTLD_GLOBAL, and it worked previously. The
library the module is linked against doesn't need any symbols from the
module. From the dlopen manpage:
External references in the library are resolved using the
libraries in that library's dependency list and any other
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
/* this is linking against a library */
libraries previously opened with the RTLD_GLOBAL flag.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And this is the case when additionally loaded module depends on a
previously loaded module (the other way round).
