Interesting.

It appears that the old a.out code to make use of uselib remained in
the libc5 sources but it was all conditional on the being compiled not
to use ELF.

libc5 did provide a wrapper for the uselib system call.

It appears glibc also provides a wrapper for the uselib system call
named: uselib@GLIBC_2.2.5.

I don't see a glibc header file that provides a declaration for uselib
though.

So the question becomes did anyone use those glibc wrappers.

Eric
