There's still no mechanism to unload a DLL.

For a long time, it wasn't practical to try to unload a DLL, because
the finalization mechanisms were too asynchronous --- making it
difficult to detect the point where the DLL would no longer be
referenced and could be unloaded safely. But support for
custodian-managed finalization has improved to the point where this
problem is worth revisiting, and I'll take another look soon.
