The statistical language 'S' from AT&T has a dynamic loading functionality.
It seems to work for the most part (in tests atleast), but there are some
limitiations and some requirements for specific load time options, etc. 

I can slam together some code fragments which encompass that part of the S
language if enough people show interest.  But I cannot answer detailed
questions - I don't have the background.
