external plugins on WinCE?

Craig,

I believe the "fail-if-WinCE" code originates from the original port and
related to WinCE 1.0. To the best of my knowledge noone has ever tried
to get external plugins to work since then (I can say for sure I
haven't). So I guess if you can get this to work it would be a useful
piece of work to share with the rest of us.

Go for it!

Cheers,
  - Andreas
