FreeBSD supports both:
    RTLD_LAZY   Each external function reference is resolved when the func-                tion is first called.
    RTLD_NOW    All external function references are bound immediately by                dlopen().
    RTLD_LAZY is normally preferred, for reasons of efficiency.  However,    RTLD_NOW is useful to ensure that any
undefinedsymbols are discovered
