+> **Note:** This feature is experimental and is incompatible with the `{internals: true}` Hook option
+
+If you are `Hook`'ing all modules before they are imported, for example in a

+})

+// Ensure that the loader has acknowledged all the modules 
+// before we allow execution to continue

 ## Limitations
 
 * You cannot add new exports to a module. You can only modify existing ones.
