I just tried it here with a hacked up version of ilrun that used your supplied 
lookup code, and it worked fine.  The "ILExecThreadLookupMethod" function 
does scan up the hierarchy, although relying upon this behaviour probably 
isn't wise for the future.

Are you sure that you're calling the lookup after the image has been loaded, 
and not before by accident?  Or perhaps the library with the "DGEE_run" 
method isn't getting linked in for some reason?

The "dumpLookupType" function in "pnet/ilnative/ilinternal.c" takes care of it 
for the internalcall table.  You'd need something similar to that.
