to implement cheap automatic dynamic loading of Perl modules.

=head1 LIMITATIONS
To reduce the overhead as much as possible, only one possible location
is checked to find the extension DLL (this location is where C<make install>
would put the DLL). If not found, the search for the DLL is transparently
-delegated to C<DynaLoader>, which looks for the DLL along the @INC list.
