For my own purposes I'm not concerned about portability within the Delphi
environment. By choosing Delphi I chose the limitations of the platforms
that it supports. I'm looking for a zero installation EXE that will be
generated via Delphi/CPPB/Kylix...

I certainly wouldn't intend for it to replace the existing library, which
thankfully is highly portable.
