I suspect your problem is the currect Cib is being loaded later in the 
boot sequence, and it is needed earlier.

Put an Obey file in PreDesk called !!!LoadCLib containing:-

RMEnsure SharedCLibrary 5.47 RMLoad System:CLib

You should not have anything in !System.Modules.CLib, all modules should 
be in the numbered directories, so the version appropriate to the OS is 
used.

Unlikely to be related.
