Bug Description
If user has no msvcr90.dll installed on his system (which is true for vanilla Windows XP systems) bzr.exe won't work, furthermore our bzr_postinstall.exe application can't work either. Which is really bad.
WORKAROUND: user should install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package BEFORE installing bzr 2.2.x (or later).
User can download this package from

Can confirm that it uses the SxS dll not the one that comes with the installer. Don't know if this means it wouldn't run at all on a machine without that.
