Although I'm unable to double check for the moment, feels like the "SVR4" support still is incomplete: Remember that even the libNAME.so file may be an archive, or a symlink to an archive, with the real Shared Object as member having the F_LOADONLY flag set and usually named shr.o or shr_64.o, besides an Import File shr.imp or shr_64.imp, which actually is used at linktime and referring to the real Shared Object: This is necessary to emulate the "DT_SONAME" feature seen with ELF shared libraries. For reference, please have a look at the shared libraries created by recent libtool when --with-aix-soname=svr4 configure option is set.
