In fact, the dependency walker shows that the debug executable has no dependency on pthreadsVC2.dll and the like at all. I probably don't understand something about how debug mode works.

Is this a problem caused by linking against two different runtime libraries (the VS2005 and VS2010 versions?)

You can probably get around installing VS2005 by just downloading the "Visual Studio Redistributable Libraries" installer.  These come with VS2005, but I believe Microsoft provides a separate set of downloads for them as well.  These will make sure the proper stuff is available in your Windows partition.
