loadlib() returns nil when it can't load the library. Check the second  
and third return values in that case, the second is an error message  
and the third "open" or "init" depending on whether the error was in  
opening the library or in finding the function.

I suspect that your error is "file not found" - the library will  
certainly not be found inside a zipped project, and even in an  
unzipped project, unless you changed the working directory to there,  
it won't be found inside the node if you just say "hello.so" without a  
path.

(As noted in commit message 188: "plugin support is quick-and-dirty  
for now, there is no standard way to locate plugins, and no formal API  
for plugins to interact with Pipmak". The former issue will be  
addressed in the real module support that I should be working on.)
