IIRC the blurb said there were only static libraries included in the
free version. Hence there should be no library issues, but will create
big executables.
The incompatible library warnings usually refer to the VC7 version of
MSVCRT.DLL, which M$ say you should distribute with your application in
its install directory, and NOT put in the system. That seems to be the
one that triggers all the license problems.
