Good question. It'd depend on what dlclose() (or local equivalent) does
on your platform. My guess is "probably not", since to do so
the dynamic loader would need to keep a lot of state about which
libraries had been loaded as a result of dependencies and whether any
other libraries still loaded had dependencies on them too.
