It is even possible to link with MSVCRT.DLL using recent versions of
Visual Studio!
What you mostly have to do for that is to include these 2 files from
Windows Driver Kit (WDK):
  lib\wxp\i386\msvcrt_winxp.obj
  lib\Crt\i386\msvcrt.lib
into your project.

Well, in fact you may face up a few problems, but basically the procedure works.
Several Web sites like these [1][2][3] explain this in more details.
