This change broke all my builds that link statically against 3rd party libraries built with the `/MD` flag. `/MD` was used at least since Python 2.3 and is the default for static libraries in Visual Studio 2015. Some of the broken builds: lxml, pillow, matplotlib, pygame, pycuda, pymssql, netcdf4, GDAL, psycopg2, pycurl, gmpy, and pyopenssl. All of these packages built OK with Python 3.5.0b4.

The build errors are of this kind: 
`error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_memchr`
`error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_strstr`

The linker throws the following warning:
`LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library`
