Hmm.  Well, this option isn't meant to be used all the time.  It's not
overly intrusive, but it costs time and Cygwin already isn't exactly
fast.  For a pure diagnosing tool, does it makes sense to add lots
of configuration options?

If you want to make the DLL list configurable, what's your idea?  Another
env var like, say CYGWIN_DETECT_BLODA_DLL_IGNORE_LIST?
