The license agreement change fixes a problem that was accidentally
introduced by Visual Studio 2008 SP1.  The redistributable package that can
be downloaded directly from Microsoft (which you would use if you had the
Express Edition) has the right license to begin with.  It never had the
restriction.

Microsoft's intent is that you be able to distribute the non-debug runtimes
with any applications built with Visual Studio.  They are evil, but not
arbitrarily malicious.
