To be quite honest I've never liked the idea of unloading bundles at
all; it seems like that would be a great way to break fragile
dependencies in code (for example, storing a callback in a struct and
having it disappear from under your feet). Of course, if you know
you're going to be doing this, then you can explicitly design for it.
Also, where is this bundle coming from, and what is its purpose? What
about the bundle is changing?
