I _am_ calling lt_dlsym; the problem is that because the module name 
as it appears in lt_preloaded_symbols does not end in ".la" (it's 
module.a there), then lt_dlopen does not think it's a libtool module, 
and thus never sets handle->info.name to any value. If info.name is 
not set, lt_dlsym does not have anything to add to the symbol name 
before the lookup.

I'm not really sure what the right way to handle this is; obviously 
lt_dlopen can't set handle->info.name for all ".a" files as well, 
because it doesn't know what those are really called.
