Another problem with it is that it would appear that nothing is 
happening as Emacs is starting. Displaying a temporary frame with the 
splash screen might help, but that brings us back to the original 
problem on Windows of wanting to override which image libraries are 
loaded (to avoid Cygwin ones for example, as they cause Emacs to crash).
