QuantLibXLDynamic-vc90-mt-gd-0_9_7.xll does depend on
ObjectHandler-xll-vc90-mt-gd-0_9_7.xll which must be loaded before.
Beside please note that the -gd- versions are debug versions. You
might be better off using the release ones:
QuantLibXLDynamic-vc90-mt-0_9_7.xll and
ObjectHandler-xll-vc90-mt-0_9_7.xll

Unless you plan to share the ObjectHandler in-memory repository
between QuantLibXL and other xlls you might prefer to compile and use
QuantLibXL-vc90-mt-s-0_9_7.xll which is self-consistent as it includes
(and does not share) its own ObjectHandler repository.

Even better: just download and use precompiled binaries ;-)
