The msvc Install.pm file (not Mkvcbuild in this case) will put it in /share/contrib/, and currently doesn't support subdirs. But it can bemade to support those if needed, I guess. No idea if that'll work on non-msvc builds. Do we expect there might be more like this? We could easily add a rule to Install.pm to know about DICTFILES rules in addition to DATA rules..
