These are a waste of space, and not really DFSG-compliant (since the source
isn't here, and we have no idea whether it's the same version as we distribute
in the relevant packages either)...

... and these have the same problems and are additionally a license violation,
since the LGPL requires corresponding source, and the version in the relevant
Debian packages is unlikely to match what these were compiled from.
(Many/most game upstreams do this, unfortunately - blame the sad state of
Windows build environments...)
I'd recommend repacking the "orig" tarball to remove all of data/dlls, to get
rid of these and any other problem DLLs that might appear in future versions.
As a side bonus, you (well, your sponsor) won't have to upload so much :-)
