Re: widl: Try to append .tlb extension to importib file name if it can't be found without it.

That's for cases like importlib("oleacc.dll"). MIDL can import them from system DLLs, but for widl, we currently need oleacc.dll file in include directory. Since it is at least confusing to have a file named oleacc.dll between includes, this patch allows providing oleacc.dll.tlb file instead.
I'm not sure what you want to do here. Do you want to put a plain typelib file in includes, but name it .dll.tlb? Or do you need an actual dll? -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

I was planning to use a plain typelib, just like we do for stdole2.tlb, but name it oleacc.dll.tlb. Jacek

Why not simply oleacc.tlb? -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Sure, we could use that. I will send a new patch. Thanks, Jacek
