Subject: [PATCH] don't access dlclose'd dynamic ioengine object after close

Alexey reported this bug when using dynamically loaded IO engines;
a segfault on the line where we set the dlhandle to NULL after
the dlclose.

I think this is because ops points to the thing we obtained from dlsym:

	ops = dlsym(dlhandle, engine_lib);

and after the final dlclose, the object no longer exists and efforts
to set the handle within it will fail for obvious reasons.
I'm not sure why I hadn't seen this before.
