Re: [PATCH] Fix memory leak in dlerror.c

You have to explain what you are trying to solve.  Without looking into
this too deeply I'd say it's unnecessary.  The error strings are not
tied to the loading/unloading.  When a new string is needed the old one
get freed.  I don't think any other condition is needed.  It might
indeed be harmful if the string is still in use.

Provide a self-contained test case which shows a problem.
