Ahem. It is not an absurd idea. Ask Linus. The Linux kernel is almost
completely modular now, and it's by far the hardest program of all to
modularize. Apache does it. Tcl/Tk can do it. PostrgeSQl *doesn't*. Part
of our job may be to help programs that can't be modularized now convert over
so they *can* be in the future.
