list the gtk's dlls that the executable, as far I know, depends

am I missing?
all those tools only return the windows dlls:
ldd a.exe
ntdll.dll => /c/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll
(0x7ffb1c5f0000)
ntdll.dll => /c/Windows/SysWOW64/ntdll.dll (0x77b50000)
wow64.dll => /c/WINDOWS/System32/wow64.dll
(0x7ffb1a820000)
wow64win.dll => /c/WINDOWS/System32/wow64win.dll
(0x7ffb1c270000)

that's supposed to return something like this:
libatk-1.0-0.dll
libatomic-1.dll
libbz2-1.dll
libcairo-2.dll
libcairo-gobject-2.dll
libcroco-0.6-3.dll
libcrypto-1_1.dll
libdatrie-1.dll
...

I figured out, I guess. gtkd doesn't link those statically rather
load it dynamically[1], so it's showing up in the mentioned
tools. So Linker.getLoadLibraries() return those dlls filenames.
