I've explored the different alternatives under several environments and the following are my findings:1) Alteration of PATH to prepend the DLL location. 2) Usage of SetDllDirectory 3) LoadLibraryEx with LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH
Maybe we do something simple and say that all shared dependencies get put into ruby/lib on windows (or create a new directory, ruby/shared or something). Or we could just do what happens now, put everything in bin. But I think its probably be better to separate them out.
One potential drawback with this solution is if 2 gems use the same shared library, but install different versions (although maybe the files would have different names).
