Is it possible, via a shared library that contains functions used by
postgres, to detect when the library is first loaded and when it is
unloaded?

Also, each postgres process loads its own copy of a library that
contains functions.  Is it possible to make a single library instance
shared across all postgres processes?  I suspect the answer is no b/c I
assume the postmaster exec()'s postgres, rather than forking, but it
doesn't hurt to ask.

thanks in advance!
