+# MachTen does not support dynamic loading. If you wish to, you
+# can fetch, compile, and install the dld package.
+# This ought to work with the ext/DynaLoader/dl_dld.xs in the
+# perl5 package. Have fun!
+# Some possible locations for dld:
+# ftp-swiss.ai.mit.edu:pub/scm/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
+# prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/jacal/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
+# ftp.cs.indiana.edu:/pub/scheme-repository/imp/SCM-support/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
+# tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/libs/dld-3.2.7.tar.gz
+#
+# Original version was for MachTen 2.1.1.
