Notes
This function is similar to Check.has() with some notable differences:
- Check() allows an array of filenames in the first parameter, Check.has() does not
- Check() does not attempt to autoload missing files, Check.has() does (unless told not to)

// do stuff that requires v1.2 of bar.js and v1.2 of baz.js
}
