GTK_MODULES=gle is already possible, early in starting gtk devel this was added:

#ifdef __EMX__
static gchar *
add_dll_suffix (gchar *module_name)
{
    gchar *suffix = strrchr (module_name, '.');

    if (!suffix || stricmp(suffix, ".dll"))
    {
        gchar *old = module_name;

        module_name = g_strconcat (module_name, ".dll", NULL);
        g_free (old);
    }
    return (module_name);
}
#endif

and i kept a note back then, since this doesn't belong into gtkmain.c.
if this is still necessary, it prolly should go somewhere into GModule.
