I'm pretty sure we can't do this, if I understand your request.

Say you have techtonik.pyd as your extension and it depends on foobar.dll. If we try to load techtonik.pyd and this pyd can't find or successfully load foobar.dll, Python doesn't know about *this* DLL. It just knows that it can't load techtonik.pyd, so that's what we'd be able to output, which isn't that helpful.
