Hi all,
what do we need dynamic loading for? It seems simpler to me to just link
to the libraries directly.
Maybe someone once wanted to have plug-ins. But then the way we do it
currently is completely wrong. We currently load external libraries
dynamically, but the interfaces of these libraries could change without
notice. Here compile-time bindings give us type safety, which dynamic
binding with GModule cannot provide.
I suggest that we remove all dynamic binding code from mc.
