And on even further inspection, I don't see how the gdb data in bug #98
could be generated from ltdl.c.  Besides the fact that (in my possibly
incorrect reading) handle is always set to NULL on error return,
handle->next and handle->info.refcount aren't set until try_dlopen() is
going to return success. So I see the problem (handle is invalid) but
I don't see how handle could have possibly come out from lt_dlopenext()
that way.

It seems extremely unlikely that FR would munge the handle that badly,
so my next best guess is that the problem was reported under a different
ltdl.c than the one you actually patched.  I'll investigate that path
but in the meantime if anyone can describe a test case that would be good.
