Summary:
When running a Rusticle binary built with the GNU toolchain (MinGW-w64) on Windows 95, the system fails with:
A required .DLL file, MSVCRT.DLL was not found.
Details:
Windows 95 does not include MSVCRT.DLL by default. The GNU toolchain links against it statically, assuming its presence. This is unexpected, since Rusticle does not require MSVCRT or any runtime explicitly.
Proposed Solution:
Investigate whether MSVCRT dependency can be removed to avoid runtime errors on Win9x.
Environment:
- Rusticle v1.20.1
- Target:
i686-pc-windows-gnu
- Host: Windows 95 VM via VirtualBox
