Yes, without an explicit load statement all necessary plugins are
loaded by default. A load statement makes only sense if you enabled
a lot of additional plugins (e.g. SQL or EAP plugins) during compile
time which you wouldn't want to be loaded during runtime. This is
the case e.g. in the Linux Distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE)
which compile nearly all available strongSwan plugins.
