This also applies to EPEL builds, so may affect RHEL/Alma/Rocky users too. See 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2415008

Is it possible that this originates in the Exim upstream itself? I'm not very 
familiar with the whole Exim build system, and haven't tried building 4.99 
myself but at a casual glance, module loading and drtables.c has had a revamp 
and seems to now try to dlopen() a file named "<modname>_lookup.so" for 
lookups (e.g. mysql_lookup.so), which is new, but lookups/Makefile still 
refers to (for example) mysql.so. Maybe I'm misunderstanding though.
