If that's a matter of concern why people choose windows in the first place? (no trolling intended, just trying to make a point here about missing "standard" packaging system..)

How to install GTK client for windows:
(no messing w/ autoexec.bat or whatsoever.)

1. Install GTK, example C:\Crossfire\

2. install Crossfire GTK client to GTK:s lib directory, example C:\Crossfire\lib

3. Play the game and enjoy!

Let's see...

All the libs go into %SystemRoot%\System32 or %SystemRoot%\System
When the app needs to be uninstalled, you simply remove the files that were installed. This isn't tough. If you're going to bother porting libraries to Windows, the least you could do is learn how the system works. You could...

1) Create an InstallShield installer.
2) Create an MSI package
3) Create a Nullsoft Installer package.
4) Create your OWN Windows installer package by using *gasp* the built in functions designed for that purpose.

So far as Win95 and Win98 go, the first three of the above work perfectly well, so long as you know what you're doing.

OSS will be taken seriously when the OSS 'community' abandons this illogical hatred of another OS simply because you can't have the source code. There are many Windows installation package standards, based on varying needs. Where's Linux and BSD support for MSI? Who is coding a working RPMS implementation for Windows?
