Nothing really changed. Most likely you're now missing msvc redistributable package in your OS.That's simple to test by trying to start python.exe from previous blender releases on the same machine.

@MartijnBerger, @ideasman42, we could work this around by copying redistirbutable .dll to python/bin (similar to what we're doing with python34.dll already). Any strong opinion here?

This is a really important issue for Blend4Web. We have implemented a new web Project Management tool in the upcoming release and it needs to run some Blender Python scripts. So it doesn't work for our Windows 8 users without installing additional packages. It would be nice if this small dll was included to the installation.

Ill just add the MSVCRT libs to the python.exe directory for now.

In future we should actually use the attributable installer from our own but having the dll's in 2 places seems to be the least evil way to quick fix this.
