FreeBSD does not support looking up WEAK symbols in its libc via `dlsym` if you're using a library-specific handle. It will give you the empty stub in libc instead of, e.g., the strong implementation in ld-elf.so This fix and the one that was merged upstream are pretty conspicuously incomplete, since `dlsym`, `dladdr` and a ton of other symbols still have stubs with no trampoline in libc: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/lib/libc/gen/dlfcn.c?id=21a52f99440c9bec7679f3b0c5c9d888901c3694 Thankfully, this appears to be the only function that we directly `ccall` from Julia's Libdl so we can leave this fix incomplete for now.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This seems reasonable to me as a stopgap solution but I wonder if there's a way we can more directly query whether dl_iterate_phdr resolved to libc does the right thing so that we don't have to perform this check on every call.

I expect this check is generally a lot cheaper than the dlsyms below, but thankfully the standard function/library pointer caching for ccall should mean we only do this once per call-site

ELF doesn't handle WEAK symbols dynamically the way it handles them statically. Looking up overloaded WEAK symbols via a library-specific handle will often give you the empty stub (in `libc.so.7` in this case) instead of the strong implementation elsewhere (`ld-elf.so.1` here). Even after the [upstream fix](https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=21a52f99440c9bec7679f3b0c5c9d888901c3694), `dlsym`, `dladdr` and a ton of other symbols still have stubs with no trampoline in FreeBSD's libc: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/lib/libc/gen/dlfcn.c?id=21a52f99440c9bec7679f3b0c5c9d888901c3694 Thankfully `dl_iterate_phdr` appears to be the only function that we directly `ccall` from Julia's Libdl so we can leave this fix incomplete for now.
