There's a lot of references on the net like this of apps packing
vcredist into their InnoSetup installers and running it at install time.

This would probably add a few MB back to the installer, but would
fix the TortoisePlink issues for good.

I'm curious if anyone has any objections to this.

PS: If/when we do move to WiX for the installer, we can use Microsoft's
new Merge Modules to do this task, which is assumed to be more
efficient.
