My point is that the warnings are extraneous and unnecessarily worrisome. It
is certainly not obvious to anyone (with the possible exception of a few
developers) why it is important whether a given .dll is a plugin library or
not.

In the immortal (?) words of SEAMUS: "Does anybody really care?"

The message: "WARNING: Csound may be injurious to your health" would
probably be both more relevent and helpful.
