Cover letter [PATCH 0/1] Load system libraries the recommended way on Windows

The search order for DLLs on Windows is a bit funny, and for system libraries, it is recommended to use a strict search path.

In practice, this should not make a difference, as the library has been loaded into memory already, and therefore the LoadLibrary() call would just return the handle instead of loading the library again.
