I agree that putting stuff in the Windows directory is evil.
Having to use 2 path elements is a bit ugly too, though. My solution has
been to move libpq.dll to the bin directory, which makes it work just
fine for me without any PATH adjustment. It should actually load
binaries slightly faster, too, since the binary location is the very
first place Windows looks for DLLs, as I understand it.
I'm not sure what else is loaded automatically at runtime (i.e. not with
dlopen/LoadLibrary). Nothing obvious that I can see.
