Yes this dependency should not be forced on Windows. The rocks that are

May I ask why VC8 instead of VC9 ? Is it because MinGW lacks support for 
VC9 (I haven't checked, just guessing).
Just asking because a large part of our codebase uses VC6 and we're 
considering migrating to VS2008 eventually. So no VC8 for me, sadly. 
Also, as someone said, there will probably be a MSVCRT10 :D Seems like 
there's no long term solution.
