Fixed this, and forgot I had a bug open for it so I didn't reference it from
the commit.

Reopening this because we need to update distutils to pass the same options or
built wheels won't work on machines where the full VC runtime isn't installed.

Cool. Easier distribution is good. Better compatibility with GPL requirements
(depending only on system facilities) is probably helpful for the general
community, too.
Embedding in C++ built with a different version of the compiler is always going
to be a fun
Steve Dower added the comment:
it's the move to the universal CRT that mitigates the worst of the don't mix
C runtimes issues, rather than this specific change?
Correct

Issue 24476: Statically links vcruntime140.dll and removes it from the installer

New changeset c0827842102e by Steve Dower in branch 'default':
Issue 24476:
Zachary Ware added the comment:
As long as a clean (updated) install of Vista, 7, 8, or 10 can download the
installer, run it, and run Python without having to do anything else, I'm good
with it.

New submission from Steve Dower:
It's possible to statically link the vcruntime140.dll dependency without
statically linking the entire CRT, which will save us from having to
redistribute the file (meaning the entire CRT dependency is now system
components).
Patch to follow, and I'm very +1

Paul Moore added the comment:
+1 from me on this. Are there any specific technical implications (in terms of
ease of interoperability, ability to use a different compiler to build Python,
or whatever)? Whether there are or not, I'm still in favour - I think it's a
good thing anyway on general
Steve Dower added the comment:
There may be some potential issues when hosting Python in a C++ app built with
a later version of MSVC, since vcruntime140.dll is predominantly initialization
and exceptions for C++. I can't think of anything specific here though, and it
seems likely that the
