Jabberlang for now rely on ejabberd. You need ejabberd to use it. The  
shared object you are mentionning comes from ejabberd.
That said Jabberlang is a client library that rely on a server  
implementation which seems strange.
That's why we are currently doing some code refactoring.
Our target is to have:
- exmpp: A common XMPP library that is used by ejabberd and Jabberlang
- Jabberlang: Relying on exmpp.
- ejabberd: Relying on exmpp.

We are in the middle of this refactoring currently.
A partner/customer has contributed a reworked exmpp module that we  
are integrating into both Jabberlang and ejabberd.

The Jabberlang API will not change in the first step, but once this  
has been done we will work on improving it.

Yes, there are plenty of example:
- in ejabberd itself. ejabberd is modular and many parts are  
developed as module.
- in the brand new ejabberd-modules repository that we have opened to  
allow contributors to work together.
See Process-one forge: https://forge.process-one.net/browse/ejabberd- 
modules
and SVN: https://svn.process-one.net/ejabberd-modules/

If your module if of general interest, it might be relevant at the  
end to put it in the ejabberd-modules SVN.

I hope this helps,
