Hi.
I want to use Postgres without installation. The problem is the
dependencies on the Visual C dll (msvcrt).
As far as I know it would be possible to include a manifest file (only
for libpq.dll?) and bundle the dlls from c:\windows\WinSxS into the
bin directory of Postgres.
Is this correct? Does anybody have (tested) such a manifest file?

You just need to copy the contents of the redist/x86 under the
%VCINSTALLDIR% in your distribution directory, where all
dlls/executables are present.
VCINSTALLDIR should be similar to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio 8\VC, depending on your Visual Studio Installation.
This directory contains:
* Microsoft.VCxx.CRT
* Microsoft.VCxx.ATL
..., etc
No need to copy the c:\windows\WinSxS contents.
Hope this should solve your problem.
