Workaround:

library identifier: 'shared-library@version', retriever: legacySCM(scm)

The approach currently taken in PR 37 will not work properly with build agents, and anyway will only work for scripts using the library step, not the @Library annotation.

By the way files loaded from the load step do appear in Replay. But it is true that your script cannot statically refer to types defined in such files. In other words, you could simulate library vars/*.groovy but not src/**/*.groovy—the same limitation as the current PR 37.
