We looked at this a while ago. The multithreaded versions of the
libraries are missing global variables and some functions that are used
in Emacs. So you cannot just drop them in as replacements for libc.lib
mscvrt.dll was slightly better than libcmt.dll in this respect.
There are some changes required to s/ms-w32.h which I found but didn't
check in, since I failed to get it working completely.
