Though I'd be interested in seeing a patch where this dynamic loading is
ripped out, and all modules compiled in statically (and just selected
accordingly at runtime).

That should allow the code to be a lot tighter and less indirect. In the
8 years on this project, I've _never_ updated just a module anywhere
except for testing once or twice - everything else ends up being a make
install / rpm -U + restart anyway.

stonithd might be a valid usecase for reconfiguring plugins on the fly,
but even all those modules compiled in would only increase stonithd's
executable size by ~250kb ...
