In 8.0 through 8.2, we built with Mingw and bundled mingw libraries with the installer and binary-only distros. In addition, the installer had the Microsoft compatible libraries, but they weren't included in the binary-only package. >From 8.3, the entire server is built with VC++. We ship the Microsoft compatible libraries in both the binary-only and installer distros.
