I'm not so sure about libltdl. I haven't spent very much time looking
at it. One thing to do would be to check the upstream libtool to see
if the support is already there. If not, I suggest doing your port
there first.
In libgcj, the platform header defines the library prefix and suffix.
For Darwin you'd want to conditionally define this in include/posix.h.

I don't know what you mean.

Nobody is working on it. If you want to give it a try, that would be
great. I don't know of a reason not to do it.
