dlclose() will have to be called at some point (i.e.: in read_close).

Oh, bummer. I would expect that overriding the PATH environment
variable would work kind of like how LD_LIBRARY_PATH works on Linux. I
don't know why that was changed. I don't really follow what goes on in
Windowsland anymore. Does anyone else care to comment on this? Martin,
maybe?
