g_module_build_path on Win32



Hi,
g_module_build_path prepends a "lib" prefix to module names on Win32, which imitates the Unix behavior. Is there a technical reason for this? The gmodule changelog from 2001-10-09 hints that this was done to work around a bug in gdk-pixbuf-io, but this prevents the function from
loading general purpose dll's in a cross-platform way without
reproducing the logic. Shouldn't the fix reside in gdk-pixbuf-io?

Thanks,
Eugene
