If these were like the normal DLLs that plague Windows I would say yes
but if you notice the libs follow the same practice that they do in
Linux and the DLL name HAS a version number. So all of the DLLs are
named like gtk-1.3.dll etc. These are the official 1.3 release of the
DLLs. They shouldn't be overwriting anything. :-)
Hey what is the general opinion? Should I continue to have them placed
in \windows\system or should they be in \pp\bin\win32?
