I think you need

  lti_dsdk_dll.dll and lti_dsdk_cdll.dll for MrSID and
  NCSEcwC.dll, NCSEcw.dll, NCScnet.dll and NCSUtil.dll for ECW

in bin and the files from the osgeo4w packages
 
  gdal-mrsid and gdal-ecw for qgis (or the current standalone installer)

and

   gdal17-mrsid and gdal17-ecw for qgis-dev (the nightly build of trunk)

That should do it.  BTW the script used to create the standalone installer
ms-windows/osgeo4w/creatensis.pl is already prepared to include those packages
if the DLLs are supplied.

Still the licensing isn't clear.  That's also why the DLLs aren't included in
OSGeo4W in the first place.   And moreover the ECW license is probably going to
change again with the next no-yet-released 4.1 version of ECW.
