AFAIR you should *never* unload external Rexx functions, as they do not
consume real resources but allow Rexx to keep ("globally") an inventory
of which external functions are located in which library. This way
resolving external function calls is possible for Rexx.
If you unload external Rexx functions, then the unloading occurs
"globally", i.e. if you have Rexx programs running in parallel in other
processes (or threads for that matter), which rely on the presence of
these external Rexx functions, they will stop to work as Rexx is not
aware anymore that these external Rexx functions exist (and in which
library), but will raise an appropriate error.
