The advice for AVS+ dlopen consumers is to only build and install AVS+ 
headers.
That does not install version.h and arch.h which are only built with the 
binary artifacts, not with -DHEADERS_ONLY.

For my Windows build, I just manually copied and renamed the template 
files to make configure succeed.
