It's an interesting topic. Tried to search the web, and at least two well-known programs, Picasa and iTunes probably expects sqlite3.dll to be located somewhere in a shared place (probably system32 folder) and some other software silently replaced this dll with its own copy having this entry (sqlite3_prepare_v2) absent so after that both programs refused to start.
iTunes http://www.seasonsecurity.com/how-do-i-download-sqlite3dll-89859 Picasa http://www.mail-archive.com/sqlite-users@sqlite.org/msg46025.html First, I'd pass D. Richard Hipp's comment about statical linking to these vendors as well :) But also this may also comes from the fact that all sqlite3.dll I saw had no windows version resource, but only version reporting through the corresponding function. It's not a problem when one writes his own installer, but as I suppose, all well-known tools for creating installers like InstallShield, relies mostly on resource version comparision in their scripts, so can it be that doing all the things by default, a software developer ends with a script that founds no version information in both versions (in the installer, and in the Windows folder) and prefers to "upgrade" anyway. Also is it hard to compile current version of sqlite3.c to dll with version information in Windows format without necessity to manually duplicate this information?
