It's already split into multiple convenience sub-libraries. But the LTCG 
compiles them all into a DLL at the final link time and that is too big.

The only possibility to fix this would be to break into multiple DLLs. I am 
completely opposed to that, as I expect the load time related to so many 
symbols and relocations to be higher.
