I have a mini patch to Rts in a repo, that could be attached here. Not sure the GHC guys will accept it though, since it does not cope with dangling refs into the unloaded code. A kind of finalization (or redirection) mechanism is needed.

Yes, I am following this, but not sure whether Simon did the .so unloading, or "just" .o unloading...
We are in need of the former.

Added a new comment to the GHC linker ticket. Maybe someone picks this up, I have no time a.t.m.
