I often wish there were a debug version of the redistributable that could
easily be installed on another machine (without having to install Visual
Studio as well) just for debugging purposes. There have been times where I
have an issue "only on this machine" and debugging with WinDebug is not as
much fun. If I could load the debug version with all the correct runtimes
I could at least see ASSERTS and do more interesting debugging.

I have mfcm80.dll on my XP machine. The file description says: "MFC
Managed Library - Retail Version" It's only 68KB, while the unicode

version.
I think "retail" version is opposed to "debug" version...
i.e. the "debug" versions of the DLL are *not* redistributable and can be
used only during the development/debug process when you run your program
with your IDE.
