I've pulled the dynamic PMNS changes out into a separate patch for
reviewing and given it an initial read-through.  So far, the only
thing that I've noticed is the (leftover?) commented out TODO in
src/libpcp_pmda/src/mainloop.c where a manual loadnamespace looks
to have been inserted (+ later removed) at some point.

Otherwise it looks pretty good.  I wonder if we should be bumping
the libpcp_pmda shared library soname for this change?  Also it'd
be good to convert a "real" PMDA like MMV (which it sounds like
you've started from that other mail) - maybe a helper routine or
two might fall out of that that could live in libpcp_pmda, and if
so, good to get those into the library for the dso vesion change.

The patch is at http://oss.sgi.com/~nathans/dynamic_pmns.patch if
others would like to review it standalone too (please do!).

cheers.
