Well, kdelibs src.rpm reveals that a copy of GNU libltdl is included,
but configured and compiled to not support .so file extensions for
shared libraries:
checking which extension is used for shared libraries...
That doesn't look intentional, because the corresponding part of
the configure script runs sed on unexpanded variables,
$libname${shared_ext}
and therefore results in an empty string instead of ".so". Then,
of course, it's no surprise that .so files are no even searched for.
