[bf1942] Using sqlite with BF2 in Windows

["Einar S. Idsø"]

Hi Giel!

I've tried using the pysqlite module, which includes the sqlite3.dll.
This works fine in regular Windows, but I get the error message I posted
earlier when I try to import it in the BF2 engine. I've tried both
pysqlite 1 and 2, as well as versions for Py 2.3 and 2.4. Nothing works.
