Yes, dlls can be used, as shared libraries in the Unix world
dllopen is replaced by the function LoadLibrary
dllsym .... GetProcAddress
etc....
The main difficulty is to produce a relocatable dll
with gnuwin32, since it seams not to be totally stable.
examples where given in this mailing list in the past
This functionality is also used in the Scilab win32 version
( ftp.inria.fr /INRIA/Scilab )
and an example is given in scilab source : scilab-2.3/Win95-util
