I see. While thinking it over, I realize that there would remain a
race condition anyhow.
In other words, the code would always first be executed in the
required copy, because it cannot be put in $" until the entire file is
processed.
Maybe
if __FILE__ == $0 and caller(0).size == 1
isn't so bad after all.
Maybe there isn't a one-on-one replacement for Pythons
if __name__ == '__main__'
after all.

Till 1.8, $: includes `require'd names relative to one of $LOAD_PATH,
$0 is absolute path or relative from cwd in other hand. So comparing
$0 with $: had no meanings, however it might be in 1.9.
