short:
dlopen/dlclose, then dlopen a dynamic library again won't go through C++ static initialization again
long:
first dlopen:
set a break in idTypeInfo constructor ( class typeinfo is static )
nothing happens on dlopen, statics are initialized when resolving symbols ( as they need to be before any C++ code runs )

then do reloadEngine, the DLL will be dlclose, then dlopen again
this time no initialization happens ( even though there is another dlsym call, and a call to GetGameAPI )
things in that case pretty much behave like the monolithic build does
searched online and found a bunch of people complaining about this problem here and there, but no obvious fix around

from the dlopen man page and various things online, I think that on top of dlclose, one should also remove
the library from the address space to force a fresh start
maybe using NSModule ( man 3 NSModule ) would fix those issues?
