__acrtused

My understanding is that this is used to indicate to the linker whether
or not to pull in the C run-time library.  

The documentation for this is to be found in descriptions of how to build
dynamic link-libraries for OS/2.

However, I believe if you put this line in your program:

int _arcrtused =0;

Then the C run-time is EXCLUDED by the linker,

int _arcrtused =1;

INCLUDES the linker.  

It may be plausible, though rash, to assume that a similar variable declaration
in an assembly program will cause the inclusion/exclusion of the C run-time 
in an assembly program.

Of course, if you have a program partly build in C, then you may only exclude
the run-time library iff:
1	You provide your own entry point (ie no C main function)

2	You do not use the C run-time library (though yu can use macros, 
	of course).
