   starlet.olb is an OBJECT library.   
      
   You can fake the shareable image. You only need to have the very same   
   symbol vector entries in the faked image as in the real one. That   
   includes all the alias entries as well has spare and private entries.   
   And you need to have the identical GSMATCH.   
      
   If someone links /system you also need a SYS$BASE_IMAGE.EXE. A faked one   
   should do, but I admit I never tried that.
