Allison and Chip expressed their go-ahead with a .loadlib pragma, to  
replace this current use:

     .sub foo :immediate
         $I0 = loadlib "XXX"
     .end

With this:

     .loadlib "XXX"

This might be done as part of vsoni's IMCC refactoring, or as a lexer  
action that loads the
library as soon as this directive is seen.

In any case, this will let dependency checkers have a much easier  
time to figure out what
dynamic libraries a .pir file is loading, without actually have to  
invoke Parrot themselves.
