djgpp version doesn't do that. However, dlsym(NULL,somemode) is usually
used to get a global symbol exposed onto the main program and the djgpp
version can do dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT,"somesym") for that purpose with the
limitation of "somesym" must be from a loaded dxe file which is loaded
with RTLD_GLOBAL.
