IIRC, this was left deliberately unspecified on grounds that it might
well be desirable for it to be platform-specific. Of course, each
platform-specific ABI needs a definition, and void* is the most likely.
Rather than just replace "dso_handle" wholesale, it might be better to
add an IA-64 typedef and verbiage to the effect that it might be
different on other platforms.
