>From the above link:

	To determine the scope of visibility for the symbols loaded with a
	dlopen() invocation, the mode parameter should be a bitwise-inclusive OR
	with one of the following values:
		RTLD_GLOBAL ...
		RTLD_LOCAL ...
	If neither RTLD_GLOBAL nor RTLD_LOCAL are specified, then the default
	behavior is unspecified.
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

linux's dlopen(3) says:

  Zero of more of the following values may also be ORed in flag:
    RTLD_GLOBAL ...
	RTLD_LOCAL This  is the converse of RTLD_GLOBAL, and the default if
	  neither flag is specified. ...
