Hmm, an answer of sorts: Inkscape's Windows build comes with MSVCR70.dll and
MSVCR71.dll (but not MSVCP71.dll).  As it's a big and high-profile project
distributed under GPL2, I think they must've done their homework.  Let's
hope I'm ok in slightly different circumstances: distributing MSVCP71.dll
as well, and under GPL3.
