The documentation is wrong; always trust what the code in
Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight.DynamicApplication does the equivalent of:
foreach (string name in new string[] { "mscorlib", "System", "System.Windows",
"System.Windows.Browser", "System.Net" }) {
runtime.LoadAssembly(runtime.Host.PlatformAdaptationLayer.LoadAssembly(name));
}
The PAL.LoadAssembly is able to find assemblies in the XAP or platform and
loads them, but you always need to call runtime.LoadAssembly to have it loaded
on the runtime.
FYI, "Hosted" IronPython code is pretty much the same as "non-hosted" ... just
that the "non-hosted" scenario does the hosting for you (with the
DynamicApplication type). So as long as you're mimicking how DynamicApplication
does things, you should be fine.

Again, doing exactly what DynamicApplication does is key =)
I believe you need to set the SearchPaths option so it knows where to look for
source files. In Silverlight, "" is the root of the XAP file, so this should do
the trick:
setup.Options["SearchPaths"] = new string[] { String.Empty };

Let me know if this doesn't work for you, and I can send you an app that does.
