Yes.  The OS specifica should be taken care of by `dynamic-link'
itself, via libltdl.  That's why you shouldn't specify a file name
extension to dynamic-link, it will provide the correct one on its own.

The setup in guile-gtk should work as it is.  When it doesn't work, we
need to find the reason.  Shared libraries are somewhat wicked, and so
the reason can be quite subtle.

More on this later...
