Dependency problems in rust 0.2 package for Windows #2129

Description

@jmansion

After installation, on a Win7 64 bit system, rustc fails immediately with:

The program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

dependency walker thinks its a direct requirement of RUSTRT.DLL and RUSTLLVM.DLL, The other dependencies suggest that these were build with mingw, I suspect - why not with clang or msdev?

IESHIMS.DLL is also missing on my system, but its delay-load.
.
Anyway - I think you need to ship mingw runtime components. And that probably means license pain too, even if its just to reference the licenses and indicate where to get the sources.
