Patch to call dlerror() in bind_now_open() for better reporting of module
loading problems
If a module exists, but some of the symbols in it can't be resolved, the
following happens:
E: [] module.c: Failed to open module "module-coreaudio-detect": file not found
Even though the file is clearly present in the modules directory. This is very
confusing.
This is because bind_now_open() in src/daemon/ltdl-bind-now.c assumes any
problem with dlopen is due to a missing file.
The attached patch makes it call dlerror() to report something more useful.</pre>
