+/**
+ * Loads a library using ctypes and exports an object on to the specified
+ * global object. The name of the exported object will be the first name
+ * specified in the global objects EXPORTED_SYMBOLS list.
+ *
+ * It is an error to call this function more than once in a JS module. This
+ * implies that you should have one JS module per ctypes library.
+ *
+ * In addition to native types and functions, the exported object will contain
+ * some additional utility functions:
+ *
+ * close Close the library and unload the JS module
+ * available Returns true if the library is available, false otherwise
+ * ABI A property containing the library ABI loaded (or -1 if unavailable)
+ *
+ * @param aName
+ * The name of the library to load, without the "lib" prefix or any
+ * file extension.
+ *
+ * @param aABIs
+ * An array of library ABI's to search for. The first one found will
+ * be loaded and the loaded ABI will be saved on the exported object.
+ *
+ * @param aDefines
+ * A function which will be called to load library symbols and create
+ * types. The function will be called with one parameter, which contains
+ * several functions for binding symbols. The "this" object will be
+ * the exported object, on to which you can should types and symbols.
+ *
+ * @param aGlobal
+ * The global object on to which we export an object. This must be a
+ * a valid JSM global object.
