Hi Dave and Andrew,

I recently noticed the thread
[BUGS] BUG #11039: installation fails when trying to install C++
redistributable .

Unfortunately I have no XP machine at hand and can't test the
installer by myself.

Looking at the binaries in the package, they seem to be built using
Visual Studio 2013. I'm suspicious if the binaries are available on
Windows XP.

If I recognize correctly, Visual Studio 2012 or later doesn't support
Windows XP by default and Platform Toolset v120_xp (or v110_xp) must
be specified so as to build binaries guaranteed to be avaiable on
Windows XP. However MSBuildProject.pm seems to specify v120 (or v110) as
the PlarformToolset property. Is it intentional?

regards,
Hiroshi Inoue
