The IAR library load mechanism isn't in OpenSimulator at this point - I believe it's \
only in the Diva Distro currently.

Three seems to be some general problem with library objects at the moment, though \
this may only relate to scripts.

Another radical solution is to turn off permissions entirely via

serverside_object_permissions = true

in [Startup] in OpenSim.ini but I suspect this is used rarely enough where some bugs \
may lurk and is probably too  radical for what Ramesh needs.
