Still hackish, though slightly better.  What version of the CRT does 
MinGW use?  Can we assume VS 2005 or newer?

I wouldn't be surprised if some SDK installation do not have it at all 
(e.g. if you install the C compiler from the DDK---which can also 
compile usermode applications) so I would rather not go that way.  Also, 
this would definitely not be usable from mingw.
