I am re-opening it:

on Windows the DLL gets looked up in the program's directory, also when
starting it from somewhere else, e.g. "C:\>c:\Programme\HeidiSQL\heidisql.exe"
works.

The same works on Wine
("/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Programme/HeidiSQL/heidisql.exe"), but it fails when
using a symlink (pointing at the .exe instead).

The issue appears to be that the programs directory is not being looked up for
loading DLLs when called via symlink.
