Subject: Setting namespace in loaded files

Hi all,

I'm dynamically loading some ruby files, and those files need to call  
a method on a module of mine.  E.g., in this case, the method is  
Puppet::Parser::Functions.newfunction, and the files are autoloaded  
from 'puppet/parser/functions/<funcname>.rb'.

I'd like to load the files in a way that 'newfunction' could be  
called without the full path to Puppet::Parser::Functions.; they call  
'newfunction', and it correctly resolves to the Functions module.

Is there a way to load a file within an existing namespace, so that  
the method search path started at the scope doing the loading?

Thanks,
Luke
