No the real issue lies with dlopening is that it cannot do GC operations from
dlopened .so files due to a stack issue ... This ends up smashing the stack
and is the major issue while calling the GC_init() ... You should get a
wrong mark which ends up being freed ... IIRC this bug was discussed on 
the Portable.net lists/irc sometime back ..
