Oh well, sounds like its there already.  I was just searching the  
libtool docs for 'run-paths'.  Does the build system think its making  
something other that .DLLs?  As far as I know, Windows DLLs don't have  
any sense of their path, you can load them from anywhere. This is in  
contrast to .a or Mac OS X .dylibs files.
