I think peeking at the Oberon V4 sources *will* help, because they have
solved the issue of implementing dynamic loading in OS's that don't support
it. In the Amiga V4 at least, the loader is a normal statically linked
program which includes the kernel and the dynamic loader module. The OS
loads this minimal stub, which then dynamically loads the rest of the
system.
