I know that. I've seen that problem the first time I tried to run TSVN
on my dev machine. The compiled TSVN binaries must have a manifest
resource included which tells the OS that it want's to use the specific
CRT/MFC installed on the system. If that resource isn't there, then it
won't run at all.

That's why you now see in the build log lines like:
13>Embedding manifest...
13>Build log was saved at
"file://d:\SVN\TortoiseSVN\obj\TortoiseShell\Release\BuildLog.htm"
13>TortoiseShell - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
