It installs bunches of libs in their own directory, I think you should
include them in sc.ini by default.

DirectX does appear to have an environment variable on my machine:

   DXSDK_DIR = C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\

So if you map: %DXSDK_DIR%Lib\x64 that will make the libs available.

MS has stopped making new versions of the DirectX SDK. Everything now ships as part of the Windows SDK.

Yeah, but DMD is tested against VS2010, and many users of VS2010 still exist (like me, and all but one of my friends on the weekend). Which means the DXSDK package is still totally relevant.
