That was just an oversight.  Interestingly, the only situation that
the lack of dlclose appeared to cause a problem with when testing was
when the AviSynth host was the standard MSVC build for IA32, under
which case the lack of dlclose caused a segfault on exit.  The 64-bit
build was fine and so were amd64 and i686 GCC builds.

Odd, but regardless, fixed in the newer version of the patch.
