I've already got some of the relevant changes made in my local copy,
so I might as well just go ahead and finish the coding work. But if
you'd like to do the documentation part, be my guest.

I'm not entirely sure where to put it, either. Subsection 32.9.1 (Dynamic
Loading) is pretty basic stuff for first-time C-function authors ---
this seems off-topic for that section. Maybe a new subsection down near
the end of 32.9? Another possibility is somewhere in the Internals
chapters, although I don't offhand see an obvious place there either.
