Assuming you have a python 3 install, with the machomachomangler
package installed, It should be something like:

python3 -m machomachomangler.cmd.redll A.dll A-patched.dll B.dll C.dll

This leaves your original A.dll unchanged, but writes out a new file
called "A-patched.dll". So you probably want to follow that by
renaming A.dll → A-original.dll, and A-patched.dll → A.dll.

Unfortunately I haven't had time to look at this for a few years, so
if you run into more trouble I may not be able to help, but I think
that should work? Good luck!
