Hmm.

Yes, I was talking about Project -> Settings -> C/C++ -> Code Generation ->
use run-time library

I'm assuming the MFC lib setting for Release mode is just a mistake.

I found it very odd but, when I chose the Release configuration, it said in
Project - Settings - General that it uses MFC either in a Static Library or
as Shared DLL, while in the Debug configuration, it says it doesn't use
MFC.
