Description
As we are based on the Windows code, the current implementation of ps::dll_load() assumes a Windows (PE) DLL is supplied it. We will also want to load OS/2 DLLs as well.

In rxxx, I fixed a bunch of Win32-specific code in os::dll_load() (that would attempt to parse the DLL file on failure thinking it's a PE and looking for an architecture field which resulted in a weird message about the architecture mismatch if some Java DLL can't be loaded) and improved error handling a bit (Odin r 21604).
And, for sure, os::dll_load() can load native OS/2 DLLs -- it uses LoadLibrary?() which in turn tries DosLoadModule?() among other things. So the problem was just a cosmetic one.
