VS2012 will no longer create code that works with MSVCRT.DLL.

Yes. Previous versions of VS required "side-by-side" setup for the
runtime libraries, which meant you were practically required to invoke
the Microsoft installer. That's been dropped in VS2012, so you can
simply copy the files into place, as long as you do the correct version
management. You still might want to invoke the Microsoft installer in
your installer, but there are now alternatives.
