I am wondering that myself now :-)
I got bogged in rtld details and simply didn't think about the solution

I will try your patch a couple of hours later.
BTW, a forward question - should this patch help in the case of an
exception thrown (and caught) before main(), i.e. in constructors of
static/global objects?
