I started to write a module for a subset of curses, called curselet, but
ran into problems with the dynamic loader. Can anyone suggest why the dl
system fails to find any of the symbols in my /usr/lib/libcurses.a? My
curseletmodule.libs contains just:

/usr/lib/libcurses.a /usr/lib/libc.a

and it finds things in libc.a, but I get :

dl_loadmod: dld_link of library failed: 10
dl_loadmod: 4 undefined symbols remain
_endwin
_wrefresh
_stdscr
_initscr
dl_loadmod: function initcurselet not executable

when I try and import curselet.

Thanks in advance.
