Compiling for Win XP SP1

[Raja Mukherji <rajamukherji gmail com>]

Hi,

I used this installer for the visual c++ redistributable:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=29

I forget what the error was without it, but it was only on Win XP SP1
and not SP2 or newer. Also, the problem wasn't there with GTK+ 2.16. I
now bundle that redistributable with my installer and haven't had any
issues. Of course you may have a different problem altogether, but I
reckon it's worth trying.
