Actually, the answer lies in the fact that the "processes" are actually 
*threads* - even if started from separate modules. That is, they can 
share variables as if they were threads of a "normal" process. References 
are resolved through the kernel symbol table as modules are loaded.

Of course, for a symbol reference to be resolved, someone must first 
export it to the symbol table. Either have one of the modules handle the 
instance, while the other(s) just reference it, or create a dedicated 
"globals.o" module to put shared stuff in.
