The bins in 'output' are built with <hardcode-dll-paths>true, since that's
good for development.

The install rule uses <hardcode-dll-paths>false, since that's better for
deployment. So, either add <hardcode-dll-paths>true to requirements
of your install target, or use <hardcode-dll-paths> as top-level
project requirement.
