Yes we could, and I did suggest that to William when we were chatting about it 
on irc, but he said then the dlls wouldn't be identical across platforms. 
Would that affect the code that we compile against those different dlls, and 
would it need recompiling against each slightly different set of dlls? Maybe 
not - I'm not sure about what the rules are. So I prefer the subclassing 
scheme best.
