At the C++ level, it is whatever is linked into libimp.so. I am not fond 
of configure-time optional extras going into there, since it makes 
testing and support that much harder.

Indeed. All of our supported IMP modules would go into the IMP package. 
But we would have other IMP modules that are not supported, still in 
development, or are for our own use, of course, and they would be 
distributed separately or not at all.
