* For images created by the static link editor with the -twolevel_namespace

* bound to is recorded by the static linker in the high 8 bits of the n_desc
* field using the SET_LIBRARY_ORDINAL macro below. The ordinal recorded
* references the libraries listed in the Mach-O's LC_LOAD_DYLIB,
* LC_LOAD_WEAK_DYLIB, LC_REEXPORT_DYLIB, LC_LOAD_UPWARD_DYLIB, and
* LC_LAZY_LOAD_DYLIB, etc. load commands in the order they appear in the
* headers. The library ordinals start from 1.
* For a dynamic library that is built as a two-level namespace image the
* undefined references from module defined in another use the same nlist struct
* an in that case SELF_LIBRARY_ORDINAL is used as the library ordinal. For
* defined symbols in all images they also must have the library ordinal set to
* SELF_LIBRARY_ORDINAL. The EXECUTABLE_ORDINAL refers to the executable
* image for references from plugins that refer to the executable that loads
* them.
*
* The DYNAMIC_LOOKUP_ORDINAL is for undefined symbols in a two-level namespace
* image that are looked up by the dynamic linker with flat namespace semantics.
* This ordinal was added as a feature in Mac OS X 10.3 by reducing the
* value of MAX_LIBRARY_ORDINAL by one. So it is legal for existing binaries
* or binaries built with older tools to have 0xfe (254) dynamic libraries. In
* this case the ordinal value 0xfe (254) must be treated as a library ordinal
* for compatibility.
