PROBLEM: (80484) (PATCH ID: OSF505-085) ******** This patch fixes a problem with the dlsym() routine. The problem was that dlsym() would perform a ring search when locating symbols in a library that was linked with the "-B symbolic" linker flag. The dlsym() search in this case should only be a depth search. With this fix, only the selected library and its dependencies will be searched. The search will not continue to the application and its dependencies. PROBLEM: (82955) (PATCH ID: OSF505-174) ******** This patch fixes a problem with dlclose() that prevented the Apache web server from running on V5.0A. The problem was that dlclose() was not unloading Apache libraries from memory. Then, on subsequent dlopen() calls for those same libraries, since they were already loaded, the memory allocated to them was not zero-filled as it should have been.
