 MSVC 2013
 Qt 5.3
When using windeployqt with MSVC 2013, it will properly copy all of the Qt runtime files, but not the CRT runtime redistributable DLLs. It shows this warning:
Warning: Cannot find Visual Studio redistributable in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\redist.
Looking at the path in the warning, there are indeed no DLLs there:
C:\Users\admin>dir "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\redist"
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is 40B8-9C98

It seems that they're buried a few levels deeper (depending on the arch):

0.CRT"

windeployqt needs to start looking in the right place for the MSVC CRT DLLs.
