[issue40906] Unable to import module due to python unable to resolve dependecies

Hello Steve,
You have added changes to load windows dependent DLLs for python C extension modules. After building the source, I can import the module only after I set dll path as:
os.add_dll_directory('C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\IBM DATA SERVER DRIVER_01\\bin') 

Is there a backward compatibility or any other way I can hardcode the dependency resolution path while building the extension itself.

I have read through the discussion in https://bugs.python.org/issue36085 but I don't seem to understand if there is a real way for users to import the module without any additional step like os.add_dll_directory() from python.

Thanks!
