I could make some sort of package that would automatically install all
the libraries that I made manually during the tutorial, analogous to
what is provided with Crystal Space.

Well, I spotted this on MS's web site:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/netdevframework.asp

I tried nabbing the 1.0a .NET Framework SDK, and it appears to come with
a C/C++ compiler and linker (cl.exe and link.exe) and a bunch of headers
and libraries, but I've no idea what I would need to actually develop
stuff with them.  It also installed a bunch of executables in places
other than the directory I specified to the installer.  I'll keep
digging.
