Moreover, I suggest beginning with a patch that replaces the src/tools/msvc
build system with CMake. One can test almost all Windows configurations using
two machines, so author and reviewer can test most everything. src/tools/msvc
has more defects than the GNU make build system, so the minimum-quality
acceptable replacement is easier to deliver. With CMake driving all MSVC
builds, it would be much easier to gradually extend to other platforms.
Thanks,
nm
