Windows/MSVC defines DLLs as separate programs, with their own lifetime and 
entry point (e.g. you can reload a DLL multiple times and it will be 
reinitialised each time). So there's no conflict with the standard here, and 
certainly nothing that affects the real discussion.

If you'd like to continue this sideline, feel free to take it elsewhere - I'm 
done with it. Let's keep the focus on making sure the added feature is useful 
for users.
