AFAIK, only through nefarious programming:

def collect_modules
  mods = []
  ObjectSpace.each_object(Module){|m| mods << m }
  mods
end
before = collect_modules
load('foo.rb',true)
after = collect_modules
m = (after - before)[0]
puts m::X

Very thread unsafe btw. There probably exists some neat hooks, but I
can't find any right now.
