> App paths only works for standard GUI applications.. no use for things

Made some search, for strange reasons it was implemented by ShellExecute(),
CreateProcess() and LoadLibrary() won't use it.

I see they've added a SetDLLDirectory() function in XP SP1 and W2003, but I
guess it does not work with load-time DLLs (it should be called before...)
and of course would break compatibility with W2K.

The problem should impact only those unlucky people with a same-name but
incompatible DLL in the path, anyway. Just an entry for a knowledgebase.
