The WiX custom actions link the C runtime as a static library, that is, the runtime code is linked directly into the custom action DLL. That's the best way to avoid the dependency problem. See the C++ compiler documentation for how to do this.

What have you done to get this f.... installed on a machine without MSVC 2005?
