[android-developers] Unpackaging APKs for ROM builds at initial startup

The application I am working on is being preinstalled with the OEM ROM
builds. Consequently, the APK is packaged with a .so file that is
traditionally placed in /system/lib. Unfortunately, the latest Ice
Cream Sandwich builds of the ROMs contain the same exact .so file that
is interacted with in a slightly different way (preventing me from
just using that .so file), but interferes with the namespace of
the .so file contained in my APK.

So, the problem is I have two .so files in the /system/lib directory
that create a namespace conflict. I've been told there is a way to
extract the .so file I need from my APK to /data/data/ on the app's
maiden startup. Is this true? Can someone point me in the right
direction?

Thanks.
