Summary0002682: Win32 SDL download includes unneeded DLLs?
DescriptionThe win32 non-legacy download currently includes all of the VC80 and VC90 runtime DLLs, even though it only appears to use the VC90 ones (specifically, only msvcp90.dll and msvcr90.dll) - msvcm80.dll, msvcp80.dll, msvcr80.dll, and msvcm90.dll do not appear to be referenced by "Dwarf Fortress.exe", and it seems to run fine even after deleting them (and making sure they don't exist anywhere else on the system).
Additional InformationThese files take up about 600KB compressed, so removing them would shrink the download size a little bit.
TagsNo tags attached.

Those files are still there. I haven't tested if they are necessary or not.
