Hmm, of couse.

But wouldn't it be an option to create at compilation time(jit) both, 
the shared-lib and the corresponding object-file?
At next startup we could link all object files laying arround together 
into one shared-library with an hacked non-checking linker.

Btw. is the jit activated the first time after a method has been called 
a number of times or are all methods compiled at the first run?
