Thanks for the pointer. Alex Schroeder also told me
(on gnu.emacs.help) about this patch:
http://www.gnusoftware.com/Emacs/Dynamic/
that allows you to use an elisp function, load-dynamic-library,
to load in a C library dynamically. I found I couldn't call
emacs functions when I used it; maybe I don't understand
dlopen well enough, though.

No need to worry, I'm a Perl CGI programmer by day. :)
