…ion (pythonGH-154255) On NetBSD dl_iterate_phdr() reports only the link-map group of the calling object. Called through ctypes, the caller is libffi's closure trampoline, which belongs to no object, so only the main executable was reported. Calling dl_iterate_phdr() from the _ctypes extension module makes _ctypes the caller and reports all loaded shared libraries.

On NetBSD dl_iterate_phdr() reports only the link-map group of the calling
object. Called through ctypes, the caller is libffi's closure trampoline,
which belongs to no object, so only the main executable was reported.
Calling dl_iterate_phdr() from the _ctypes extension module makes _ctypes
the caller and reports all loaded shared libraries.
