With [JDK-8320890](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8320890) we introduced the capability not to load shared libraries twice if the application wants to do that. Instead we just rise a ref counter. Unfortunately this also suppresses the loading of a second member of a shared library.
This fix introduces an additionally stored hash value for each loaded member and only suppresses duplicate loading if the same member is loaded twice.
If a shared library has no member a hash value of 0 is used to make the code orthogonal.
