It does. But then, the benefit of simplifying upgrades H.J. wanted
can't be accomplished. Using separate executables is the only way to
accomplish that. At least, before libtool's libltdl (its portable
dlopening library) gains a self-relinking&re-exec()ing mechanism that
could be used to overcome the inability to dlopen() libraries.

It has been available since release 1.3.0 (the latest is 1.3.4)
