I'm having some trouble getting _init() to run when I use dlopen() to load a
library.  I get this:

one.o: In function `_init':
/usr/home/jcm/exp/modules/libone/one.c:7: multiple definition of `_init'
/usr/lib/crti.o(.init+0x0): first defined here

With other signatures, _init() never gets called.  What is the correct
procedure to use here?
