As long as the .dll could be built from F/OSS tools and had no licensing restrictions that violated the DFSG, I don't think it would be a Debian Policy issue. It's really more of a feasibility issue; the idea of using log4j packaged by Debian to write to an NT Event log doesn't particularly sound like a reasonable use case. Can you explain why you wish to have Debian's package of log4j include a Windows(TM) .dll? Perhaps we are missing a point here.
