With SxS I see problem if customer have a clear new installation of WinXP and no msvcrt80.dll. I'm not be able to ship this dll with installaton of my client - when I use for example Inno setup. Isn't possible to have redistribute package with proper version msvcrt80.dll accord with your binaries on the wb site?
