If we are open to bikeshedding, then I suggest that the library should not be named after the subject it operates on (whether we call them dynamic link libraries or shared objects), but rather on the functionality it provides. The purpose of the library is to load and find symbols in the subject, so something like Boost.Loader looks like a better alternative to me (knowing full well that it does not load arbitrary files.)
