Why not adopt one of the advanced dxe implementations
already in v2tk/, e.g., dxe2_011.zip:

 |        Dynamic linker for DOS/DJGPP         |
 | This library will allow you to create and   |
 | use dynamic libraries under DJGPP, both in  |
 | `truly' dynamic mode (using the well-known  |
 | Unix-compatible dlopen() API) as well as in |
 | `static dynamic' mode (e.g. statically link |
 | against dynamic libraries which will loaded |
 | on demand.                                  |
