In what situations upgrading Apache and PHP versions can resolve issues related to loading dynamic libraries in PHP?

Upgrading Apache and PHP versions can resolve issues related to loading dynamic libraries in PHP when the older versions do not support the specific library versions required by the PHP code. This can lead to errors when trying to load the dynamic libraries, resulting in functionality issues within the PHP application. By upgrading to newer versions of Apache and PHP, compatibility with the required dynamic libraries can be ensured, resolving the loading issues. 

// Example PHP code snippet to load a dynamic library after upgrading Apache and PHP versions
if (!extension_loaded('example_extension')) {
    if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '7.2.0', '>=')) {
        dl('example_extension.so');
    } else {
        die('Error: PHP version must be 7.2.0 or higher to load this extension.');
    }
}
