Of course, I'd much rather have not had to deal with this in the first 
place.  I run with tool-bar-mode set to nil, so the xpm support is a 
wasted feature for me...  Is there a way to disable it or to make it 
more predictable (e.g. install the necessary DLLs with ntemacs)?

In an attempt to disable this feature, I edited the emacs.exe binary 
looking for the code that explicitly loads the XPM DLL.  My thought was 
that I'd twiddle the strings used to call LoadLibrary() so that the xpm 
DLLs always failed to load.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find these 
strings (in any encoding).  How exactly does this feature work?
    

The list of DLLs Emacs looks for is set up by the value of
image-library-alist, which is defined on lisp/term/w32-win.el.
  
[RGW] Ah yes, how stupid of me not to look in the lisp...

Any comment on packaging a set of compatible image libraries with ntemacs?

Thanks,
Rob
