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:
I think that you can package vcredist (which installs these components)
without owning the paid version.
I also wonder if there's a newer version of express that you can compile
with, python includes msvcr90, so at least that will be in the search path
when apps are run with python or pythonw.
If not, a quick note on this problem on the project page would really help
people sort through this.

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.
