Was this ever fixed: dlclose XS .so files on interpreter exit

There was some discussion on the list a while ago about fixing the
infamous mod_perl/APXS coredump problem by making perl close any files
it has dlopen'd when the interpreter exits.  The consensus seemed to be
that this should be done with a Perl_call_atexit handler or somesuch,
but I don't recollect having seen a patch for this.  It would be real
nice if this could be fixed in the upcoming release.

I'm happy to have a stab at this if someone can confirm that the atexit
mechanism is the correct way to go.
