Its ugly, but what I've done for something I'm working on is to have a
master source file for the module that #includes the various other source
files. In my particular case I have a number of modules using a lot of
common code (but only one of the modules can be loaded at any one time),
and so the master file actually has the init routine in it.

Hope this helps.
