Comment(by igloo):
It turns out that assemblies aren't really better than the
{{{
cp c:/ghc/ghc-7.2.2/lib/libHSrts_thr-ghc7.2.2.dll libHSrts-ghc7.2.2.dll
}}}
solution. They would just allow us to put the DLLs in subdirectories, to
make things a bit tidier.
In particular, an assembly doesn't let you say "Use /path/to/my.dll" (with
an absolute path), only "Use foo/my.dll" (with a relative path).
