Description Stig M. Halvorsen 2014-02-14 08:28:57 EST 
Compiling on Windows using `make` through MinGW with GCC v.4.8.1-4 and `USE_RENDERER_DLOPEN=1` results in *libgcc* becoming dynamically linked in the renderer DLLs. This again results in the following run-time error when the engine loads the renderer:

    The program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing from your
    computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
