Any error about a missing DLL is a run-time error that's 
unrelated to dub or the compiler.

Normally, for end users, a missing MSVC runtime DLL means you 
have to install the MSVC Redistributable package. This version of 
the DLL you're missing is from MSVC 2013, so that's the version 
of the package you'd need.

However, I wonder what's causing the problem in the first place. 
Do you have Visual Studio installed, or are you using the 
out-of-the-box libraries and linker that ship with DMD?
