More appropriate for the libtool list, but that's ok.
Yes, well, .so is the right extension on Mac OS X for loadable modules.
.dylib is the right extension for shared libraries.
ltdl.m4 has:
# LT_SYS_MODULE_EXT
# -----------------
AC_DEFUN([LT_SYS_MODULE_EXT],
[m4_require([_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER])dnl
AC_CACHE_CHECK([which extension is used for runtime loadable modules],
[libltdl_cv_shlibext],
[
module=yes
eval libltdl_cv_shlibext=$shrext_cmds
])
if test -n "$libltdl_cv_shlibext"; then
m4_pattern_allow([LT_MODULE_EXT])dnl
AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED([LT_MODULE_EXT], ["$libltdl_cv_shlibext"],
[Define to the extension used for runtime loadable modules, say,
".so".])
fi
])# LT_SYS_MODULE_EXT
# Old name:
AU_ALIAS([AC_LTDL_SHLIBEXT], [LT_SYS_MODULE_EXT])
If you write your own macro, and put in:
module=no
eval my_shlibext=$shrext_cmds
or similar, then you will get the correct result.
