Comment (by simonmar):
This is not a complete fix, but I made the linker look for "libXXX.dll" in
addition to "XXX.dll".

* Windows: print an error message in addDLL
Also, look for libXXX.dll in addition to XXX.dll (see #1883, this
isn't really a proper fix, but it'll help in some cases).
And I tidied up the error message for a DLL load failure, though it's
still a bit of a mess because addDLL is supposed to return a (static)
string with the error message, but this isn't possible on Windows.
