There are two approaches:  have solib_open() test for a local/remote 
target; or, add methods to the target vector that allow solib_open() to 
be written independant of the target.

Adding a local/remote test is going to be easier.  Having the code 
written local/remote independant might be better long term (but runs the 
risk of making things unnecessarily complex).
