That would be kind of terrible by default.

What ensures that two different modules are compatible? Nothing, by 
default. What happens if you try including two incompatible compiler 
modules in one project? Presumably an error. What if I try to depend on 
two libraries that have incompatible compiler modules? I can't.

So it's a lot of work and would just fragment the language.
