As I suspected, there is indeed something wrong with the bundled

Actually, it turns out the issue was with using Cygwin git. :( Because
the *.dll files in the repo have 644 onstead of 755 permissions they
won't get the FILE_EXECUTE permission on NTFS when checked out with
Cygwin git, which means they can't be loaded with LoadLibrary().
A simple `chmod +x *.dll` fixes this problem. Maybe the mode should be
changed in github to prevent someone else falling into the same trap?
Done now. (6ec0306cfc5529918b1c5a6cccdd9f4de9f232a1)
So I'm not sure where this leaves us with the releasability of the
current codebase. I'll look into the 03_undef.t failure a little more,
but obviously don't know how long it is going to take me.
I tried to build t/03_undef.t based on a bug report,
but I wasn't able to properly test it, so assume
it could be totally wrong.
