If both those are unacceptable then the only solution will be to
document the dependency. The last toolset which allowed linking to
msvcrt.dll was WDK 7.1, and that has now been superseded by WDK 8.0,
which uses VS 2012 instead of an ancient set of compilers. I confirmed
with Doron at Microsoft earlier this year that it's now a requirement to
link against VS's CRT (http://www.osronline.com/showthread.cfm?link=221792).
Why is statically linking the CRT unacceptable?
