Ah, it finds it, if I give it the full path. It doesn't seem to like relative
paths (or, more likely, I can't figure out what the working directory is).

I don't know if this could be done, but how about changing Pipmak to look for
plug-ins (when loadlib() is called, maybe write a wrapper function) in a
directory named "plugins" in the same
directory as the Pipmak project? (i.e. all plug-in paths are relative to the
"plugins" directory.)  So the directory structure might look like this...

loadlibTest/
|-- loadlibTest.pipmak
|   |-- 1
|   |   |-- face.png
|   |   `-- node.lua
|   `-- main.lua
`-- plugins
     `-- hello.so
