Thank you David for the pointers.
The second one suggests that careful linking options would prevent the
'main' symbol to be generated

and using nm I've found that all mod_*.so libraries do not have any
'main' symbol but libpq.so does have one marked 'U'.
I'll look for more info about linker options.
