i don't know of a good way to do this.
really, parameterised modules would be great.
the simplest thing i can think of is if modules are first class and using
etal can take an expression, but the following doesn't run:
module A
foo() = println("a")
end
module B
foo() = println("b")
end
module AB
m(x) = x ? A : B
end
using AB
using m(true)
foo() # wouldn't it be nice if this printed "a"?
