Václav Šmilauer added the comment:
While I understand that this behavior went unnoticed for ages and can be seen
therefore as unimportant, designating this as documentation bug is quite
absurd; perhaps the following wording would be appropriate:
.. note::
If this function is called multiple times on the same file (in terms of
inode; symlink pointing to same file is fine), it will return the module which
was first imported via `load_dynamic` instead of the requested module, without
reporting any error. The previous call to `load_dynamic` may not be in the same
part of the code, but it must happen within the same interpreter instance.
