thx cdarke, I tried this already before (I removed the testing of the handle in my example to limit the sample files to a strict minimum). I just put it back again for safety, same result.

Also changing RTLD_LAZY to RTLD_NOW creates no different behaviour (just tried it).

Loading of the shared lib seems to work correctly as removing the line 'use IO::Socket' from hello.pl and executing ./perlEmbedDynamicLoading generates the expected output '** hello from hello.pl **' (so the loading is ok). But when I put back again the statement "use IO::Socket", ./perlEmbedDynamicLinking works fine (just as runinng "perl hello.pl"), but ./perlEmbedDynamicLoading crashes with the only message "memory Fault".

when you say "although it works for me", does this mean that you've been able to run the example files without any problem ?
