The upstream is going the other direction with handling versioned symbols.
They will introduce versioned symbols in the future, but we know
that it will require a full rebuild with the new packages, which
I don't think is ideal.
Not using RTLD_GLOBAL would be a good idea.
As an aside; If you are using RTLD_GLOBAL in module loading, I believe
the development package for those libraries should depend on libpng[23]-dev,
because they are loading libpng[23] in the shared namespace.
