Its a generic architecture for mostly-native code Haskell apps, yet with
dynamic reloading. Its a reimplementation of the `dynamic apps from the
ground up' architecture described in the hs-plugins paper of 2004, where 
the static core runs in ghci.

But we've got to play around with the code a bit first: its just an idea
for now.
