The plugin-based case can covered by the notion of multiple "entry points": every library that is intended to be `dlopen`ed is tagged with the name of the interface it provides, and every library that does such `dlopen`ing mentions the names of such interfaces rather than the names of libraries directly. Of course your `ldd` tool has to scan all the libraries on the system to know what might be loaded, but `ldconfig` already does that for libraries not in a private directory.
This might sound like a lot of work for a package-manager-less-language ecosystem at first, but if you consider "tag" as "exports symbol with name", it is in fact already how most C plugin systems work (a few use an incompatible per-library computed name though, or rely entirely on global constructors). So really only the loading programs need to be modified, just like the fixed-name `dlopen`.
