An example not solvable using php.ini:

At SysNet, we access dbms only with odbc_* functions using (for
different apps on the same server) solid and IBMdb2.

We compile ext/odbc/php_odbc.c as solid.so and ibmdb2.so and load the
right module using dl ().  Using php.ini is not feasible because this
lead to multiple function definition.

I think a similar situation may arise with multiple xslt backend, they
must export the same API but could provide different features (or
bugs) so you must use xslt1 for app1 and xslt2 for app2.

Please don't drop dl () :-)
