Yes, i think adding a tool for this would be OK. Still i'm asking myself if it's realistic that on windows somebody is using this at all. With our company for example there are just a few and very simple use-cases for windows builds, that is just plain shared libraries, no magic stuff or anything that is not supported by windows / the compiler anyways... The only reason for enabling this on windows would be saving lines to port to the windows platform (if dlpreload is used somewhere), correct me if i'm wrong.
