You're probably still missing a {$linklib some.dylib} statement in your 
program, and possibly a wrong name in the ex****ts section (I shouldn't 
have copy/pasted the "public, alias" stuff you were given earlier; it 
must not be used in the context of libraries because it's not for 
ex****ting from a library, but only for internal visibility among object 
files).

This works for me:

bigmac:~/fpc/test jonas$ cat tlib.pp                
library tlib;

procedure test; cdecl;
begin
  writeln('hello');
end;

ex****ts
  test name '_test';

begin
end.
bigmac:~/fpc/test jonas$ cat ulib.pp
{$linklib libtlib.dylib}

procedure test; cdecl; external 'libtlib.dylib';

begin
  test;
end.
bigmac:~/fpc/test jonas$ ppcppc ulib
