[Openal] Search path for wrap_oal.dll

Hello,

This is a question for the Creative folks. Our project would like to 
ship the Creative SDK as part of a larger .zip containing all 
dependencies needed to build (i.e. no special installers). This zip 
looks like...

ext\bin <-- DLLs (this is in the PATH)
ext\inc <-- Headers
ext\lib <-- Import libraries

We have found out that placing wrap_oal.dll in ext\bin does not work. 
This is explained on openal.org:

"The router DLL looks in the current directory, then the application's 
directory, and then the system directory in that order."

Is there any way to add a path (namely ext\bin) to the search path?

Thank you.
