When a process/shared object links to another shared object, is there a way
to specify the mode in which the shared object is opened? The OS/linker
seems to use RTLD_WORLD | RTLD_GLOBAL by default. Can this be changed.
Specifically to RTLD_GROUP | RTLD_LOCAL. I do not want the symbols of the
shared object I link to, to go to the global symbol pool.

This isn’t possible right now.
You might gain an effect like this by use of the linker version-script
mechanism.
