I have mc.exe, but only because I have paid for Visual Studio. I don't
have the platform SDK installed, however I cannot honestly say whether
or not I would have it if I didn't have VS. I would include the file in
CVS if it were my choice - it's clearly a pain to download the compiler
if you don't have it, and the file is unlikely to need updating in the
future - it was designed to be a generic DLL that just formats any
message as '%s'.
