Okay. Sorry for adding noise. My mental hiccup was in thinking it would 
continue to use LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH in conjunction with 
SetDefaultDllDirectories: LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_DEFAULT_DIRS. I forgot that it's 
documented that they shouldn't be combined. Instead we have to explicitly use 
LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_DLL_LOAD_DIR | LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_DEFAULT_DIRS in each 
LoadLibraryExW call in order to support loading DLLs beside the extension 
module. In this case, embedding applications that don't call 
SetDefaultDllDirectories won't have a problem loading extensions that rely on 
AddDllDirectory. It's only ctypes and cffi packages that will be forced to 
update if they currently rely on PATH or the working directory.
