The MinGW ones for the Windows API may do, but the VS 2010 libraries are not an option for LDC, we require at least 2015 (which introduced the 'Universal CRT', probably making things more complicated). I'd also prefer to keep on defaulting to the static C runtime in order not to produce binaries depending on Visual C++ DLLs (hindering portability of Windows binaries).
