My understanding is that those DLL overrides are expected to be required. From
get_load_order() in dlls/ntdll/load_order.c:
/* first explicit module name */
...
/* then module basename preceded by '*' */
...
/* then module basename without '*' (only if explicit path) */
...
/* if loading the main exe with an explicit path, try native first */
...
/* and last the hard-coded default */
...

I was testing on my laptop with a not very powerful intel chip. The initial
loading screen shows the 'Morrowind Graphics Extender' message, and lsof
indicates that the dll is loaded. I didn't check for improved graphics (since
my settings are pretty low anyway).
I didn't try Morrowind Overhaul.
