        Unloading modules can be reasonably dangerous, depending on what the
application has done - particularly favourites of registering pointers
to const / static data that are then not cleaned up properly on exiting
are particularly problematic.

        At least on Linux - IIRC there were some libraries that were
deliberately not un-loaded; clearly the intersection of that with Java
may make it even more problematic.

        So - I'd be careful - not every apparent leak is a bug ;-)

        ATB,

                Michael.
