These are all potentially native DLLs.
I wanted to point out the more important ones, but I can't do that,
as nearly all DLLs seem to be equally important.
So just get a load of these and try it with some -dll DLL=n or
--dll DLL=n,DLL2=b arguments.
After some experimentation there *should* be a change in behaviour.
For better or for worse... ;-))

Yup. critical section timeout.
