Here is your POC for the manipulation of dynstr (and therefore, interception of
library calls without interfering with redefining/overriden libc names like
memory debuggers and AOSS do).

skype-1.2.0.18.tar.bz2

.dynsym table (0x2f80), as printed per "HT"
0130 global   func     00000000 0000007c *undefined  writ
05b9 global   func     00000000 0000007c *undefined  open
074d global   func     00000000 0000007c *undefined  read

.dynsym table (absaddr 0x2f80):
ofs     absaddr stringptr
+0x0130 0x4280  0xe0c0
+0x05b9 0x8b10  0xddbc
+0x074d 0xa450  0xdff0

.dynstr table (absaddr 0xa750):
ofs     absaddr name
+0xe0c0 0x18810 write
+0xddbc 0x1850c open  (note it is part of "fdopen")
+0xdff0 0x18740 read

Change to w2ite, o2en, r2en. Implement w2ite(), o2en(), r2()en and fdo2en() in
an extra library. Load that via LD_PRELOAD.

---extra.c---
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int o2en(const char *path, int flags, mode_t mode) {
    int ret = open(path, flags, mode);
    printf("open(\"%s\", %x, %04o) = %d\n", path, flags, (int)mode, ret);
    return ret;
}

FILE *fdo2en(int fd, const char *mode) {
    FILE *ret = fdopen(fd, mode);
    printf("fdopen(%d, \"%s\") = %#p\n", fd, mode, ret);
    return ret;
}

ssize_t r2ad(int fd, void *buf, size_t count) {
    ssize_t ret = read(fd, buf, count);
    printf("read(%d, %#p, %zu) = %zd\n", fd, buf, count, ret);
    return ret;
}

ssize_t w2ite(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count) {
    ssize_t ret = write(fd, buf, count);
    printf("write(%d, %#p, %zu) = %zd\n", fd, buf, count, ret);
    return ret;
}
