Thanks!

Funnily enough, it *does* fix it. With a simple .emacs with

;;; .emacs
(let ((xpm (assq 'xpm image-library-alist)))
         (setcdr xpm (cons "my-xpm.dll" (cdr xpm))))
;;; end

I get this:

C:\test> runemacs
C:\test> listdlls emacs.exe | grep -i xpm
  0x20800000  0x7e000                   C:\emacs\libs\my-xpm.dll

C:\test> runemacs -q
C:\test> listdlls emacs.exe | grep -i xpm
  0x20800000  0x7e000                   C:\emacs\libs\libxpm.dll

Eli has answered that, but if you add

(message-box "Not yet finished")

to the end of .emacs, the tool bar is not visible until *after* you
dismiss the message.
