Thanks for this great write-up. I think the effort is so small that it 
should be included in the system. This would close the biggest hole in 
the Oberon system.

I would prefer to improve the forced unload function by writing NIL to 
all references that would close the last hole (I hope) in the system 
for the occurrence of dangling pointers.
