I did that.

Everything I compiled with VC7 depends on version 7 dlls.  Either 
MSVCRT70.DLL or MSVCR70D.DLL.

All the prereq Win32 binaries from ethereal.org use MSVCRT.DLL which I 
understand is the version 6 dll.

This is supposed to be a big no-no, and why a bit later in my mail I was 
asking where to find the Windowsified sources used to build the binaries.
