Oh, sorry, I never tested it this way against R5, or else I would have
investigated into this before.

Well, yes, sort of. For one, the order in which you link is important.
If you need something out of libmedia.so that's also found in libbe.so,
you should link against libmedia.so first.
Another solution would be to check for the libmedia.so image and use
get_image_symbol() on it to find the function you are searching for -
but of course, that would be kind of a hack.
Anyway, how is that functionality implemented and how does it work,
basically?
Bye,
Axel.
