If that's true, then it's illegal to distribute *any* GPL software compiled with VC7 -- or with any other language implementation that links in a non-open-source runtime library -- and has been for a long time. I find it hard to believe that's the intent of the GPL. There must be a lot of software out there that does this -- is it all breaking the law?
