Some time ago I maintained a patch for dynamicly loading the
lookup-libraries. It's a bit crude, as it was made to fit the
requirements of one linux distribution.

It only supports dlopen, there are at least two other systems for
dynamic loading, shload and .... something else I don't remember right
now. :)
