Just tested manually on MinGW+msys and all tests passed OK.
I've been learning that setting up dejagnu on MinGW is a bit
convoluted, so I'll postpone that to the next weekend the soonest.
Would be great if the patch could be applied nonetheless.

(On cygwin, I've also tested that deleting the dlls before
the run time tests by injecting in the proper place in direct.exp a:
catch "exec rm -f $tmpdir/direct_dll.sl" ln_catch
really FAILs with "child process exited abnormally" output.
)
