>  You're missing the beauty of 9p. Who needs dynload() when you have mount()?

Mount allows me to add new names to the process namespace.  Dynload
allows me to call functions or access data in a library that is not
known to the process (e.g., scripting language interpreter) until
runtime.  They solve different problems.
