playbin deals with system loader issues? What I'm talking about are OS-level
undefined/unknown reference errors -- the dll itself (at least not typically)
won't get past the OS loader into user space if its dependencies aren't
satisfied. The code from before looks (to the system loader) like there aren't
any Direct3D dependencies.

I still give my Windows XP embedded example, which I know is actually still in
use. Plus effort has already been done to abstract Direct3D -- why eliminate it
(especially when it is providing a useful function of gracefully downgrading
when Direct3D is unavailable on the system)?

Thanks!
