Yes, just use the Dynlink module.

You can find a great usage example in the O'Reilly book [1] (debian
package available in debian/unstable ocaml-book-{en,fr}).

Anyway, returning to your example you should have an association list
ref, say "algos", and you should use it as

  let algo =
    try
      List.assoc "command_line_option" !algos
   with Not_found -> failwith "Module not loaded"

Then you should have a set of .cmos that you should load using
'Dynlink.loadfile', each module should update the 'algos' association
list adding itself to it.

Hope this helps,
Cheers.
