OK, in this case I am going to provide
a very detailed, reproducible and undisputable
proof that the above quote is false.

Attached is the small patch that can be
applied on top of my v10 patch-set to verify
the demo I present here.

The demo I present here, shows the "trace"
of the dlmem() usage, by sampling the
/proc/self/maps at needed points. Namely,
before dlmem(), immediately after dlmem(),
and after the fdlopen-over-dlmem finished.

That demo clearly and unambiguously demonstrates
how dlmem() transforms the raw solib image
into the "loaded" image, i.e. where all the
PT_LOAD sections are correctly laid out.

The output of that demo will be located in
a path: <glibc-build-dir>/dlfcn/tst-dlmem-extfns.out
Everyone can apply the v10+attached patch
and verify my results on his build.

And here it is:

$ cat tst-dlmem-extfns.out

PS: yes, I realize nothing can be changed.
But I need to make sure the best possible and
the most obvious proof is publically available,
so that its not to look as if I've given up to
this "wonderful argument that was brought
to me so many times". You got all the proves,
and also more than once.
