Well, here is what happens when a DLL is loaded:
- global variables are initialised
- the DLL entry point is called
- user calls whatever functions he wants
Now, if some of these global variables are C++ objects and something
crashes during their creation, the process of loading the DLL is
aborted -> hence the DLL's entry point is never reached.
I knew what was happening right before I got out of bed this morning -
was kinda late last night.

Thanks for giving the problem a thought and best regards
