Not only will it be a mess, but it might cause problems with other
applications. I have the Lua folder in PATH. Having these libraries
next to lua.exe means they would also be available to LoadLibrary. For
me it meant wget.exe not working anymore because it was loading the
wrong ssleay32.dll. This was easily fixed, but I can imagine worse case
scenarios.
