Actually, if you used a compiler that created re-locatable code you 
could store the compiled results a form of library and pull them in and 
store them in FLASH using the same routines that the bootloader uses. 
You then jump to the "overlay" page and execute from there.  You'd need 
to fiddle a bit to get everything to work, but it is do-able.
