By changing values in the jump table associated with each library, in RAM.
I.e., the same old way.  There is a bug in closing a window (deleting a 
layer, actually) which gets a pointer out of recently freed memory. 

PD patches are available, I think, and CBM will be shipping a patch
for this and a couple of other things with WB V1.3.
