No. Cyglsa.dll as well as cyglsa64.dll are not linked in to
applications, but into the LSA, so they could potentially be locked by
the OS. Even though cyglsa.dll *could* be rebased, it doesn't make any
sense and could just result in trouble.

It's only in use after you manually called cyglsa-config and rebooted the
machine, and if you did that, only one of the DLLs is in use depending on
using a 32-bit or 64-bit OS.
