Yes, that is the question, but you need to either find someone who
knows machTen, or go through the man pages. Hmm, the following post

 Dynamic loading (in the usual Unix sense) doesn't work under MachTen.
 The closest to this is to use the shared libraries Mac-side; see pp.
 219-220 in the manual.
