> Dynamic linking is generally preferred over static linking, and MSVCRT.dll
> has been integral part of Windows for a long time.
>
> This also fixes linker warnings for _malloc and _free in zlib.lib, which
> seems to be compiled for MSVCRT.dll already.
>
> The DLL version also exports some of the CRT initialization functions,
> which are hidden in the static libcmt.lib (e.g. __wgetmainargs, required by
> subsequent Unicode patches).
