Was my first idea but i saw that someone wanted to make some check about
version and something else.

It is the direct solution, but code must be written like a simple collection
of functions. If you embed functions in objects and set them with the 'set
instruction:
rebol[]
contex [
set 'myfunc does [none]
]
the parser must do an hard work to understand the code and find the 'myfunc
definition.

Yes, with 'unique also more. But to collect the files name you must do the
files to execute the new import func, so we can't collect all the inclusions
before do-ing the scripts.
