Your setup had pretty much "enumerated" all possibilities when it
comes to exporting/importing maps:

- utils.dll had private maps

- datastructures.dll had its own maps and exported them

- dataflow.dll had its own maps and also exported them

- server.dll imported maps (who knows from which of the above two DLLs)

- main executable imported maps

Nedless to say this setup is broken -- your should have a single base 
DLL that exports the maps and every other DLL and executable should
import them (the exception would be schemas that are not compiled with
--generate-polymorphic). I am not that familiar with the Windows dynamic
linker internals to try to figure out why you got the results that you
got. Even a broken clock is right twice a day ;-).
