DLLs (and FWIW all binary images) are mapped as one piece into the VM of the process. From the above you can see that the start address of the DLL is supposed to be 57010000 (== VMA(.text) - 4K) Since the image is mapped in a single piece, the address you see in the object header are real VM addresses. Unless, of course, the DLL is rebased on the fly by the Windows loader. But that only means the *entire* DLL is rebased, so the relative offsets of the segments from the load address are the same as they are in the file header.
