All this pretty much subsumes what I was thinking.

The only question that remains is: why are there some sites like
http://www.dll-files.com/ which offer this and other MS dlls for
download?

For the spambayes binary, maybe there should be another person adding
the msvcr71.dll to the distribution that Tony builds?  Someone who has a
MSVC license, and also is developer on the spambayes project?
