Linux calls them "shared libraries", and their names end in
".so" (plus a
version number, usually); but the concept and function is the same.

Maybe you want to switch to Linux (or some Unix), then, since that's normal
there. :-) The standard library goes by the name "libc". Your
basic "Hello,
world" executable is barely 3K.
                                                                                
But I was under the impression that msvcrtXX.dll _was_ Microsoft Visual C's
version of the standard library. (Dunno, I've never actually used MSVC.)
