patch: correct behaviour of dlls ( init & fork )

Dear all,
I have made some work to let dlls have almost the same behavior as so on UNIX:
- implementation of dlopen,dlclose,dlsym,dlerror
- correct init when loaded + call of global contructors
- call of global destructors when detached
- dlls are accessible and correctly initialized in forked process
- handles got through dlopen or dlsym in parent are accessible in child
- use of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in dlopen search
I think it can help people who need an intensive use of dll ( plugins ... )
My patch is 59082 bytes, so I will not send it to the list.
Anyway, if you are interested, send me a mail and I will send you the patch
personnaly ...
Regards.
P.S: I will send the patch to Geoffrey Noer
