Summary: PyOpenGL Windows installer should be packaged with C Runtime

Initial Comment:
Installation fails on Windows systems that don't include a copy of mscvr71.dll (the C runtime), KB326922 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326922) suggests that this file should be packaged with the installer. Can this be included in future versions (precluding any licensing issues)?

Message:
Last I looked, you need a paid version of MS Studio to be allowed to
package msvcr71.dll, I only have the free (express) version.
