You override this behavior by setting CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_SKIP
to ON and then providing your own install rules. See the following chunk
from ParaView.

# Add install rules for required system runtimes such as MSVCRxx.dll
SET (CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_SKIP ON)
INCLUDE(InstallRequiredSystemLibraries)
IF (CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS)
  INSTALL(FILES ${CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS}
    DESTINATION ${PV_INSTALL_BIN_DIR}
    PERMISSIONS OWNER_WRITE OWNER_READ OWNER_EXECUTE GROUP_READ
GROUP_EXECUTE WORLD_READ
    COMPONENT Runtime)

  # Install the runtimes to the lib dir as well since python modules are
  # installed in that directory and the manifest files need to present there
as
  # well.
  INSTALL(FILES ${CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS}
    DESTINATION ${PV_INSTALL_LIB_DIR}
    PERMISSIONS OWNER_WRITE OWNER_READ OWNER_EXECUTE GROUP_READ
GROUP_EXECUTE WORLD_READ
    COMPONENT Runtime)
ENDIF (CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS)
