OK, in that case it finds msvcr90.dll via PATH. I was only thinking of the DLL 
being installed in a subdirectory of the system WinSxS directory. I still think 
in this case it would be better to let extension modules get access to the 
activation context that Python saves and subsequently activates when loading 
extension modules. ctypes could activate this context before calling 
LoadLibrary.
