Are you on windows or a Unix variant? (Linux, OS X.. ). If you are on  
windows then you _really_ do NOT want to link to a library built with  
different crt libraries using Visual Studio. This is a recipe for  
disaster. If you are on MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin then I have no Idea what the  
"correct" solution is.
