No.
Why not?
Because anything based on imagehlp.dll will be subject to ms's
vaguaries, and rebinding and rebasing .dll's does bring a performance
improvement. If we can't rebind/rebase on windows ME via imagehlp.dll we
will need a libbfd solution eventually - even if Steve's patch does
allow binaries to run, they won't be as fast as they could be.
