[Bf-committers] Ready for first commit?!

Users will need to unpack libraries to use anyway, and svn server zips
files anyway, afair. So i'd rather not to 7zip anything. We don't do this
or current libraries and it worked reasonably well so far.

Or are msvc2012's libraries so much bigger so we could not afford having
then unpacked in svn?
