Is this a bug?

Could you please try the svn version?

r1572 does not include the system files, but it does include the C and C++ runtime libraries, which is correct IMO.

On windows the approach was changed to not exclude files, but include.
In other words if system dll should be included it has to be explicitly
named, otherwise system dlls are excluded by default.

Maybe we could discuss if this behavior should be backported to 1.5.x or
not.

A package that includes system specific files and does not run on other systems is not very useful. Given that there is a simple workaround for 1.5.x and that the svn version seems to work fine for this case, wouldn't it be better to concentrate on the next release? However it would be useful to document the technique for excluding files in the 1.5.x manual. I had to search the mailing list archive to find out how to do it.
