There is also the matter of figuring out how much storage you need to obtain. As you say your module is small and static, this sounds like a non-issue, but with big modules you need to know. You can fall back to doing a normal LOAD, followed by a DELETE, then STORAGE OBTAIN and directed LOAD, but that somehow offends my sense of what's right. Or you can ask the Binder API, or fiddle about with PDS directory stuff, or...
