Comment(by simonmar):
Ah, that would apply to a program made from multiple DLLs, not when you're
building a single DLL to use as a library. The reason is that
`defaultsHook` relies on the normal linking semantics where an earlier
instance of a function replaces a later instance during linking, but DLL
linking doesn't respect that (ELF dynamic linking does, however).
