That could explain why my first attempt at loading v8 did not work.  I
did not conclude anything yet and will look at it more carefully, but
this might be the reason.  What doesn't help, perhaps, is that the
message I still get is that it can't find

  libreadline-5.dll

when I put the file right there on the same directory as the executable.
I would indeed like to try with v5 if I could.  I suppose v6 has more
changes than v8.  Thanks!
