Win32 has no problem with loading two modules, e.g. php4ts and php5ts, mod_php4 and mod_php5 all in the same process. But not if the dll names collide.

The most effective solution is to use the rebase command to generate a base address list, and in the linker command, use the construct /base:"baseref.lst",modname which will drop everything in expected locations. All flavors of apr and apache use this. Almost 1mb sure sounds like a candidate for unbundling from the core. Bill
