Comment:

 So, we want to use a 32bit .dll for our 64bit Windows builds, too? It
 seems to me Mozilla is using a 64-bit one for 64-bit Windows and a 32-bit
 one for 32-bit Windows:
 {{{
 # The DirectX SDK libraries are split into x86 and x64 sub-directories
 case "${target_cpu}" in
 i*86)
   MOZ_D3D_CPU_SUFFIX=x86
   ;;
 x86_64)
   MOZ_D3D_CPU_SUFFIX=x64
   ;;
 esac
 }}}
 and
 {{{
 MOZ_D3DCOMPILER_VISTA_DLL_PATH="$WINDOWSSDKDIR/Redist/D3D/$MOZ_D3D_CPU_SUFFIX/$MOZ_D3DCOMPILER_VISTA_DLL"
 }}}
 I think we should do the same. Tom, could you push a trustworthy .dll into
 your repo? And could you even give us a signed git tag (that would rock)=
