Description

Later versions of the Visual C++ compiler create manifest files for DLLs and EXEs, which list which particular version of runtime libraries the application should use. To prevent having to distribute these we can build them into the .exe - this is already done for the Python bindings but should really be done for all the bin/ applications and any other bindings.

It looks to me like this was actually fixed way back in 2009 by 2c83292443a5e5dcd2b83e030f8f37e3cc926685, so closing.
