Hi!

Currently, nginx does not support DSO to load additional
modules. Therefore, nginx sources come with many modules. This also
means that if we want to add a third-party module to nginx, we need to
include it in nginx package.

It would be very convenient if dynamic loadable modules were supported
in nginx. I don't have the capacity to vouch for one patch in
particular, but here is one:

 https://github.com/hamano/nginx-mod-so

I am also aware of this limitation:

 http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx/2011-November/030684.html

The ABI problem is not very convenient but a third-party module could
match exactly the binary version of nginx. As for the reload problem,
I have no clue.

I don't expect this problem to be solved soon. I am just registering
my interest for a nginx with DSO support. In case there is a suitable
patch in the future, please include it.
