"no support for dlopen()" .  How does this apply to Windows clients?  We
always build first on Windows and once we have no errors of any kind we
build on Linux if the application exists for that platform (what MONyog
does and SQLyog does not) and fix what issues may occur there.

This issue has occurred with SQLyog (and as such for a Windows client).

I am not coder/developer myself, but on Windows I think we have no other
option than statically linking? We could of could compile the API as a
.dll, but we don't (because we had a lot of problems with it earlier).
