Which makes me wonder how others develop extension modules: I always use a debugger at some point, and I haven't yet found one which lets me set breakpoints in dynamic libraries that haven't been loaded yet!

After you import the .so you can set a break point. I do that all the time on my sgi uner dbx or cvd .. no problem. I also have about 10 extensions modules all of which use .so files ! -Michel
