Description:
------------
When loading dynamic librarys with dependencies - and the dependency cannot be found - the error-message states the dynamic library itself cannot be found :(


Reproduce code:
---------------
Loading Dynamic Librarys with dependencies:
Apache-Error-Log:
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\\PHP\\ext\\php_mysql.dll' - Das angegebene Modul wurde nicht gefunden.\r\n in Unknown on line 0
is shown on startup, also the missing file is libmysql.dll and not php_mysql.dll
(if i include libmysql.dll in my system32 folder, the warning is gone. All dirs in php.ini etc. are set correctly)

Also true for other libs with dependencies.


Not sure if this is intended or uninvitable, or an apache-bug, and i know that the manual tells you that you have to copy the libs to your system32 or set the PATH-Folder.. but if the warning-msg could be more specific, a lot of people would be able to fix the problem faster?

Expected result:
----------------
Expected: 
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'libmysql.dll'

It's not possible to know why loading an extension fails. So can't really improve this.
