--- Comment #11 from Erik van Pienbroek <erik-fed...@vanpienbroek.nl> ---
@Greg Hellings: are you talking about mingw-dlfcn? That package currently isn't
in EPEL7 yet, but are you sure that nspr really requires it?

Basically mingw-dlfcn is just a wrapper for the unix-specific functions
dlopen/dlclose/dlsym. The Win32 API functions LoadLibrary, FreeLibrary and
GetProcAddress are their Windows equivalents.

I would expect that nspr uses these Win32 API functions already in their native
Windows builds. If this really is the case then it is preferred to use the
Win32 API directly instead of using a wrapper library (to avoid dependency
bloat and to remain as close to upstream packaging as possible).
