It may not be, but at least it brings it into the realm of Microsoft moves we've seen before. (cf. MFC dlls, which are never distributed with Windows itself, and may legally tie all MFC apps to run on Windows alone, if the MFC EULA holds. Or so I recall.)

And the answer is: if it isn't, neither is the (L)GPL. Why would MS not be able to place restrictions on distribution of their own copyrighted code?
