Well, sure. Same goes for a lot of things. But since mfc42.dll is a Visual C++ runtime file that has very liberal redistribution terms and is in fact bundled with many apps, we can get away without it for a long time. And it's not currently a showstopper as far as I can tell; I'm more interested in the bugs that keep e.g. Photoshop from running flawlessly.
So one of these days it might become a priority. Until then, it's merely important but not urgent.

I feel for the poor soul that will implement MFC. Using MFC is horrible enough...but actually *implementing* that?? Good luck! =)
