I'm not sure, but I think that's not a problem... I dound something about that here:

But meanwhile, is it still the case that wish85.exe can't run on a pristine windows XP machine???
pd.exe and wish85.exe exit immediately with a non-zero error level. When starting wish85.exe, I get three messages in the event viewer:
#1 Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC90.CRT could not be found and Last Error was The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.
#2 Resolve Partial Assembly failed for Microsoft.VC90.CRT. Reference error message: The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.
#3 Generate Activation Context failed for c:\puredata\pd-0.46-7test\bin \wish85.exe. Reference error message: The operation completed successfully.
When I load wish85.exe on my Windows XP at home (the one missing msjava.dll was another machine), those are listed as missing:
IESHIMS.DLL WER.DLL
Actually, both seem to be related to IE 8 being installed on this machine (contrary to the other machine where still IE 6 rules). Also, when I load regsvr32.exe I get the same result, which makes me think that they can be ignored. The same probably applies to msjava.dll, as you already pointed out.
Then I did, what the fifth paragraph of DependencyWalker's FAQ suggests: I loaded regsvr32.exe with DependencyWalker and ran it with wish85.exe as argument. Now those DLLs are labeled missing, too:
MSVCR90.DLL TCL85.DLL TK85.DLL
(see: http://www.netpd.org/~roman/tmp/regsvr32_exe_wish85.png )
Now, I don't know...
