That DLL would still be required even when its compiled with MinGW?

An easy solution for that DLL is to have it included in the Pd- 
extended installer.  Its already handling a number of DLLs and its  
quite trivial to add another.  packages/win32_inno/Makefile could  
copy the DLL from %SystemRoom%\system32, if its there, then the  
installer package will test if its installer a newer version of the  
that DLL, then install it.

But I would really like to have Pd-extended build Gem from source,  
rather than using binaries.  That means using MinGW on Windows...
