@bagder "no std libc" There is no libc for windows? I find that hard to believe

@DubioserKerl @bagder there is one but it's not following the standard specification when Microsoft decides the standard is wrong. Which they do more often than other systems.

@DubioserKerl @bagder libc versions on Windows are actually a part of the compiler instead of a fundamental system component like on Linux. This means the MSVC version you use determines the libc version you ship (either statically linking it, or relying on those VC++ redistributables).

This is actually a good thing compared to Linux, because it allows cleaner separation between modules. This is a problem for Flatpak etc on Linux wrt graphics drivers.
