We should simply recompile it ourselves without that dependency. I don't know what causes VC++ to create executables with those dependencies but I think it may be avoidable. Or the C library can be linked statically, which is what gfx_directx.dll's readme says: "The binary was compiled for 32-bit systems using Visual Studio 2008 SP1, Unicode character set. The msvc runtime (msvcp90.lib) is officially statically linked, and the d3dx library is officially dynamically linked." I think that if it's compiled with mingw then it won't have any extra dependencies on a VC++-version-specific dll. I'll try it out.
