PILS keeps reference counts on the plugins, so that it shouldn't load a 
plugin twice (provided you don't do weird things).  Libtool *also* keeps a 
plugin reference count.  So, you should be OK...

Ram ran into this, but I don't recall the solution.  I think it meant 
configuring the glib logging (which is under this) correctly.  I think there 
is code in apphbd to set that up right...

So, I'm a little confused...  Where is this happening exactly...

Sorry for the late response.  Maybe you have this fixed?
