hi; (cc-ing jimm)
The one 32bit binary is used by our users on WinXP, Win7x32, Win8x64.
Jimm, you did a bunch of the recent Win8 work, so I guess would have
the best context - any compat concerns?

Hmm not sure I can help test. According to that kb article this patch
doesn't impact win8, so presumably my win8 systems won't get it. My win7
system is 64-bit and has it, but from your comments the dll(s) in question
aren't getting loaded by fx on my system.
I'm not sure we have an issue here assuming people have their env set up
right. On tinderbox, we include the 8.0 sdk first -
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/build/win32/mozconfig.vs2010-win64
So anything we import (include, path, lib, libpath) directx related will
come from the 8.0 sdk if it has it. Anything else that is not in the 8.0 sdk
falls back on the old June directx sdk release. AFAICT that's just that d3d
compiler file, which is unaffected by the ms kb.
The wrinkle in this might be our use of MOZ_DIRECTX_SDK_PATH -
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?string=MOZ_DIRECTX_SDK_PATH
If we pull files using that directly from the directx install path into
dist/bin, then we might have a problem. I don't see anything there expect
that compiler file. Gfx folks might be able to confirm.
Jim
