Proposed patches are always welcome. :-)

I do not have time to add a whole other dependency analysis tool into
GetPrerequisites any time in the near future, but if somebody else does, I'd
be happy to review it.

And I'm not sure what the best logic would be to decide to use this
alternate tool. Right now, we're simply expecting you to use "dumpbin"
within "if(WIN32)" blocks...
