After hitting submit I have got: "Due to technical reasons, the email address can not be used". With msvcrt-xref.pdf document, now I hope that I understand the difference between MSVCRT.DLL and MSVCR120.DLL. Shortly, as I get it: - MSVCRT.DLL system dll with back compatibility to older windows systems, always present in the system. - MSVCR120.DLL part of Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable. I suppose that libmsvcrt.a use both MSVCRT.DLL and its MSVCRxxx.DLL satellites. And we have the same libmsvcrt.a on all windows distributions. Seems like win10 machine have no trouble with _create_locale call because it has this function in MSVCRT.DLL, but win7 don't have _create_locale in MSVCRT.DLL. MinGW project can't rely on MSVC redistributable because it's not always available, and it has its own licensing. So it is not possible to just link libmsvcrt.a with MSVCRxxx.DLL. But with the mechanism of GCC specs file, I can subset the other DLL instead MSVCRT.DLL in build, and at this point, I should know what I'm doing in terms of licensing and distribution.
