could be - but it's the FreeUDFLib which I've been using unchanged since
1999. I don't know of anything which it needs in the client lib.
Also interesting is that once the udf lib is first loaded, you can delete
the client lib and the server doesn't object again (until you reboot and it
tries to first load it again).
So I suspect that there is noting in the lib itself which needs the clinet
lib but the server gets the client lib to do something when it first strikes
a UDF lib.
