Gee, I've been able to run Andrew applications linked dynamically not only against "libc" but against "libX11" as well. The two dynamic loaders don't have to get in each other's way (although a version of the "class" dynamic loader for 4.1 that uses "dlopen()", "dlsym()", etc. would be useful - and would probably get you 99% or more of the way towards one for System V Release 4, and obviate the need to crack ELF files).
